Medicinal products for human usefiled 26 Apr 2021source

The Vereniging Innovatieve Geneesmiddelen (VIG) considers the evaluation of the pharmaceutical legislation an opportunity to draw lessons from the COVID-19 pandemic and prepare for the future. To remain attractive for innovation and R&D while effectively responding to future challenges and threats.

A European Health Data Spacefiled 4 Feb 2021source

The Vereniging Innovatieve Geneesmiddelen (VIG) is positive towards the proposal of the European Commission to establish a European Health Data Space (EHDS). This proposal enables the EU to better grasp the potential of health data for research and innovation on new preventive strategies, as well as on diagnosis and treatment of diseases to improve health outcomes.

Compulsory licensing of patents in crisis situationsfiled 29 Apr 2022source

Without the continuous and substantial investments in R &D, new technologies would not be developed. The (mRNA) vaccines and medicines used in the COVID pandemic would not have been there without the robust EU Intellectual Property (IE) system. IE, more specifically patents provide incentives for innovation through knowledge-sharing and in return temporary market protection to recoup (financial) investments.

Supplementary protection certificate for plant protection products. Recastfiled 4 Apr 2022source

The development and marketing of new medicines requires time and investment in research, the outcome of which is uncertain: many developments do not lead to a useful medicine. There is no doubt that a well-functioning IP system is indispensable for a good innovation and investment environment.
