CARLSBAD, California and ZHUHAI, China, May 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The ninth annual ChinaBio® Partnering Forum will be held in Zhuhai, China, May 31-June 1, 2017. The event is the largest and most productive life science partnering conference in China, and brings over 900 leaders from across the life science value chain. Attending companies from China and across the globe include pharma, biotech, innovative startups, and researchers from leading universities and institutes, as well as VCs and other investors.

Cross-border partnerships are the focus of new rules just proposed by the China FDA that will make international collaboration and investment easier, including foreign-approved IND exemptions that speed drug trials by two years or more, and expedited regulatory processes for new drugs and IND/CTA approvals for certain indications, among other highlights. China continues to be the world's fastest growing healthcare market and is expected to be the #1 market in the world by 2020.

"There is no better time to forge cross-border partnerships with China-based drug development companies," said Greg B. Scott, Founder and Chairman, ChinaBio® Group. "Innovation is coming from within China, and new CFDA rules have relieved the concerns of many Western companies and investors. The landscape has transformed significantly from just a few years ago resulting in an increase in cross-border in-licensing deals with Western companies."

"China continues to be a major player in drug development on the world stage," said Anna Chrisman, Group Managing Director, EBD Group, "as evidenced by recent partnerships between global pharma companies and China startups in the development of new cancer treatments and new biologics. ChinaBio® Partnering Forum is a conduit to connect pharma and investors with China innovation and manufacturing."

Pharmaceutical companies already committed to attending the event include AbbVie, Bayer, Johnson & Johnson, MSD, Novo Nordisk, Pfizer, Roche, and Sanofi as well as scouts from innovation-based domestic companies such as 3SBio, Betta, EbimAb, Innovent, Livzon, Luoxin, Mabpharm, Shenogen, Simcere and Zai Lab, among others.

The event is hosted by Zhuhai, a coastal resort city, centered in the life science industry in Southern China. The Jinwan district is home to over 150 life science companies, including two of China's USD 1+ billion healthcare companies, Livzon Pharmaceuticals, and United Laboratories. The new, 250,000 m2 Zhuhai Jinwan BioPharmaceutical Park is only 10 minutes from the Zhuhai airport, and provides full incubator facilities as well as pilot and clinical scale biologics manufacturing.

Registration and partnering information for ChinaBio Partnering Forum is available online.
