ebis address the Pharmaceutical Security Institute's 19th General Assembly at Interpol Headquarters in Lyon
On 14 April 2011, Richard Veale, the ebis director with responsibility for special projects, addressed representatives of the pharmaceutical industry at the Pharmaceutical Security Institute's 19th General Assembly at the headquarters of Interpol. Richard's presentation focused on new approaches to tackling those who make the trade in counterfeit pharmaceutical products possible.
The address, entitled, 'Tackling the Enabler', considered how professional, financial and technical enablers who support organised groups that profit from the sale of counterfeit pharmaceuticals might be effectively tackled and removed from the counterfeiting chain.
