  • One of the major pillars of our healthcare system, the Indian Pharmaceutical sector is the third largest across the world in terms of volume and is one of the leading generic medicine contributors in the US and Europe markets. Due to the excellent support and encouragement from the Indian government, even though many startups, as well as SMEs, are venturing into pharmaceutical sectors, they hardly have the expertise or tools to meet the ever-evolving regulatory requirements across the world. After more than 35 years in the pharmaceutical sector, K. Anand started his pharma consulting firm to help Indian pharmaceutical companies meet up regulatory challenges and compliance standards across the world. Under his sharp expertise and able leadership, the firm has been helping pharmaceutical firms grow their market base across the world while maintaining the highest product quality standards and procedures.
