RALEIGH, N.C., April 17 /PRNewswire/ -- Campbell Alliance, the leading management consulting firm specializing in the pharmaceutical and biotech industries, today announced that Nader Naeymi-Rad, Senior Vice President and head of its Brand Management practice, will present a session at the 2nd Annual Forum on Early Stage Commercialization Strategies for the Bio/Pharmaceutical Industry hosted by the Center for Business Intelligence (CBI). The conference will be held on April 20.21, 2006 at the Hyatt Regency in Princeton, New Jersey.
Mr. Naeymi-Rad’s session, titled “A Systematic Approach to New Product Planning,” will be presented on April 20 from 3:00 p.m. to 3:45 p.m.
In his role at Campbell Alliance, Mr. Naeymi-Rad, along with his Brand Management team, work closely with both large and emerging pharmaceutical and biotech companies to proactively manage their products’ lifecycles -- from as early as phase 2 of clinical development through product launch -- and to identify new indications for products to extend their brand life.
“Early decisions regarding the commercialization of a key compound can have far-reaching ramifications in terms of the company’s financial outlook, as well as on its ability to finance the development of other drugs in its pipeline. With the pharmaceutical and biotech industry’s focus on maintaining a robust pipeline of drugs in development, having an effective, process-driven approach to new product planning, and product lifecycle management overall, is more important than ever,” stated Naeymi-Rad.
According to CBI, this conference brings together leading industry experts and advanced practitioners to examine the steps companies have taken to map out their early-stage commercialization processes, add internal commercialization structure, and ensure that new products with merit are not overlooked or under-resourced. In addition, the program highlights best practices in pipeline and portfolio management to drive portfolio execution and revenue generation.
