    The Russian pharmaceutical market is one of the fastest developing,

currently growing at double the rate of the global pharmaceutical market (over

10% annually[1]). Russia is benefiting from a growing economy and with the

increased healthcare investments being made by the government, the market is

set to enjoy a sustained and prolonged period of expansion. CPhI Russia @ IPhEB

and its co-located events provide the ideal platform to break into this

attractive region, with both domestic and international buyers and suppliers

all looking to meet, network and drive the Russian market.  

    This year's platinum partner, JSC "Pharmasyntez" exemplifies the growth in

the region, through their multi-million dollar investments in domestic drug

production- with three new sites opening in 2014. The company will feature as

an exhibitor at the event, showcasing their new dosage form capabilities-

sterile powders and solutions for injection.

    Alongside JSC "Pharmasyntez", the total number of exhibitors vastly exceeds

that of last year, rising from 65 exhibitors to more than 200. The exhibition

moves to the Lenexpo Exhibition Complex to further facilitate the high levels

of growth and mirroring the expanding domestic market.

expansion, four years into its Pharma 2020 plan. With increased support from

the government, coupled with the desire to increase domestic production by 50%,

the Russian pharma landscape is proving to be a very attractive venture for

international buyers and suppliers looking to break into this market. CPhI

Russia plays a very important role within the region to accelerate this growth

and further drive innovation within the market- a key goal within the country's

plan", Erik Heemskerk, Brand Director Pharma.
