Quotes
"It is important to recognize the extent to which the Greek market has been disfigured by the country's financial and banking woes. Prior to the crisis, Greek pharma could legitimately claim to be the sixth largest market in Europe" - Christos Dakas, Shire
"The government's commitment to capping the public pharma budget to one percent of GDP is absolutely nonsensical… that particular metric only works when a country's GDP is at its peak and stable, and enjoys the potential for growth" - Harry Nardis, Astellas
"In every civilized country, the trend has been for healthcare and pharmaceutical expenditure to increase every year as costlier, new generation sophisticated products enter the market. This regressive trend is thus clearly unsustainable." - Philippe Lambrinos, Pierre Fabre
"Regardless of the challenges posed by the financial squeeze, most actors are perceptive of the underlying potential of this important market and acknowledge that there are no shortages of patients with inelastic needs that need responding to" - Konstantinos Kofinas, Merck
