Advanstar Communications, Inc. has announced that Pharmaceutical Technology magazine, the industry's most authoritative source of drug-manufacturing information for pharmaceutical and biotech professionals, has published the first issue of Pharmaceutical Technology Asia (http://Asia.PharmTech.com) in April 2006. The magazine is the first of its kind in targeting a rapidly emerging pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing market with peer-reviewed technical information on new technologies and techniques.
"The drive for cost efficiency in Western markets has produced an explosion of active ingredient and finished drug product manufacturing in the Asian Pacific region," said Doug McCormick, editor in chief of Pharmaceutical Technology. "The major pharmaceutical companies--and dozens of smaller firms--have already invested millions of dollars in supply contracts, manufacturing ventures, and state-of-the-art R&D facilities. They are in the region for the long haul." As pharma investments in the Asian Pacific region continue to climb, so does the need for reliable information about all aspects of drug manufacture, formulation, delivery, and development.
Pharmaceutical Technology Asia is designed to deliver peer-reviewed, expert, technical content for manufacturing, R&D, engineering, quality assurance/control professionals incpharmaceutical and biotech organizations in China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Taiwan. This publication is the third in the global Pharmaceutical Technology brands, joining the 30-year-old Pharmaceutical Technology, www.PharmTech.com, and Pharmaceutical Technology Europe, www.PharmTechEurope.com.
