This year, we are delighted to move the expo to Mumbai to leverage the proliferating pharma hub of West India in addition to the Southern market. Meanwhile, with our rich legacy of knowledge sharing in the South, I am also pleased to announce the separate launch of PharmaLytica Confex on August 8-9 in Hyderabad. Cumulatively, the PharmaLytica brand seeks to deepen understanding of the changing landscape in the sector to enable strategically sound responses to marketplace trends. It will also play a key role in establishing a unique drug safety ecosystem in India." "By 2020, India is likely to be among the top three pharmaceutical markets by incremental growth and the 6th largest market globally in absolute size. The pharma companies are making tremendous efforts to discover new drugs, increasing R&D expenditure, implementing technology and introducing new methodologies to improve quality of manufacturing. Our focus at PharmaLytica, would be to keep the companies abreast with innovations in the growing businesses of India's pharma industry," he further added.

India enjoys an important position in the global pharmaceuticals sector and the largest provider of generic drugs globally. The country's pharmaceutical industry is expected to expand at a CAGR of 22.4 per cent over 2015-20 to reach US 55 billion. India's pharmaceutical exports stood at US
17.27 billion in FY18 and have reached US 15.52 billion in FY19 (up to January 2019). The various economic drivers and government policies like pharma parks, allowing 100 per cent FDI, boosting the biosimilars and biologics sector, along with ancillary sectors, and reducing manufacturing costs are the key driving factors for the growth of the sector in the country. The 'Pharma Vision 2020', introduced to make India a global leader in end-to-end drug manufacturing, has also boosted investments.
