Our top leading history and experience in the Spanish market positions Asphalion as the best partner to ensure rapid commercial success

Spain

The drug development process requires a diversity of strategies addressed towards enhancing a product’s value for the society. Therefore, understanding specific local needs, processes, standards, laws and crucial contacts maximizes future market possibilities in each context.

Furthermore, the Spanish market represents one of the biggest potentialities due to the volume of its health expenditure, which positions it as an interesting and essential strategic region. To this purpose, we can offer a deep understanding based on our experience about the local Spanish regulatory environment, as well as its agents, involved authorities, communications flow and calendars, etc., all of them key to ensure a successful and efficient registration, commercialization, and post-marketing product life.
