About this Event
Join us in Boston for an evening of lively debates on what the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and state Prescription Drug Affordability Boards (PDABs) mean for the biopharma industry and what will happen next.
During this in-person event, our panel of expert speakers will debate key questions surrounding some of the significant policy shifts shaping the future of drug development. Was the first round of IRA price negotiations a success, and what are the long-term implications? What is the real impact of state-level PDABs on drug pricing and access across the US? Attendees will gain valuable strategies and perspectives from our expert panelists, helping predict what might be next for the IRA and PDABs and what this might mean for future drug launches in the evolving regulatory landscape.
The Greater Boston biopharma community is invited to partake in these critical debates, ask questions, and share their own insights. Refreshments and networking time are included with registration.
