Brakkeコンサルティングの視点
As mentioned in last week’s viewpoint, several Brakke consultants including myself participated in the AHNTI conference in London.

The event saw strong attendance, drawing nearly all major animal health companies and much of their senior leadership. Additionally, a wide range of affiliated organizations—including CDMOs, suppliers, and consultants —were present.

The central theme was ‘Innovation,’ explored through a variety of engaging speakers and panel discussions. While innovation is crucial for industry growth, regulatory agencies face ongoing challenges to keep pace and ensure timely approval of new advances to the market. Investment is also a key component, particularly for independent startups, yet there remains a significant shortage of venture capital funding available within animal health to support them.

In my opinion, unless we improve regulatory processes and expand investment opportunities, innovation in animal health will remain more of a discussion point than a reality.

あなたの意見 
先週 we asked you to how likely you thought the CVM would have meaningful and significant reforms by 2031? 61% felt that some improvements would be made by then, with another 26% felt that little to no improvements would occur. Only 13% were optimistic that a lot of improvements can be expected by 2031.
