To achieve global recognition in the 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical and biotech ecosystem, largely dominated by U.S. and European regulations and multinational corporations, South Korean companies must explore an Asia-centered cooperative framework.

Byung-Geon Lee, Chairman of GI Innovation and member of the National Strategic Advanced Industry Committee, shared his perspective at the "Strategies for Fostering Future Growth Engines in the 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical, Biotech, and Healthcare Industries" forum, organized by the Korea 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical Bio-Healthcare Association on September 10th.

Moderated by Eui-Kyung Lee, Professor at Sungkyunkwan University College of 슬롯 머신 일러스트cy and former Commissioner of the Korea Food and Drug Administration, the forum included discussions by prominent figures like Dae-Hee Shin, Vice President of LSK Global 슬롯 머신 일러스트 Services, Ki-Yong Hong, Professor of Business Administration at Incheon National University, and Yu-Kyung Hwang, Advisor to the Advanced Regenerative Medicine Industry Policy Committee, among others.

The Korea 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical Bio-Healthcare Association represents eight organizations, including the Korea 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical and Bio-슬롯 머신 일러스트 Manufacturers Association, the Korea Biotechnology Industry Organization, and the Korea Digital Healthcare Industry Association.

Chairman Lee stressed that South Korean companies, already at a financial and regulatory disadvantage compared to global "Big 슬롯 머신 일러스트," cannot rely on mimicking the blockbuster-driven models of larger firms to achieve global leadership.

Chairman Lee explained, “South Korea faces challenges in becoming a global leader with its current approach. For example, Eli Lilly's research budget alone is .7 billion, while the combined research budgets of all South Korean 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical and biotech companies total less than .7 billion. Even with .5 billion in government support, the gap remains significant.”

He further noted that many South Korean 슬롯 머신 일러스트tech firms are investing in substances to enhance the efficacy of existing blockbuster drugs, such as Keytruda, rather than developing innovative new drugs. This approach not only increases the risk of technology leakage but also drains substantial research funds.

Lee also questioned the necessity of Phase 3 clinical trials, dominated by global Big 슬롯 머신 일러스트, for many treatments. He suggested that safety and efficacy could be established through Phase 1 and 2 trials in most cases, and proposed a regulatory reform modeled after Japan’s system, where drugs with proven safety are first used and then re-evaluated.

Lee called for an integrated Asian summit to shift the current paradigm, which is dominated by U.S. and European 슬롯 머신 일러스트ceutical, biotech, and healthcare industries.

He noted, "At global events like Bio USA or Bio Europe, Big 슬롯 머신 일러스트 companies hold hundreds of meetings, resulting in just one or two contracts. Asia, with its 4.5 billion population, must unite to form a 'Bio Asia,' a platform for cooperation at both governmental and public-private levels."

He also proposed creating the "ACH (Asian Council for Harmonization)," an Asian version of the 슬롯 머신 일러스트ly harmonized ICH guidelines, to ensure regulatory autonomy from U.S. and European influence. Lee emphasized the importance of collaboration between the public and private sectors, with government participation to develop this framework further.

슬롯 머신 일러스트 outlined a two-track strategy for companies developing treatments in emerging sectors like neurological diseases and anti-aging therapies.

Initially, companies may need to license technologies to advanced markets like the U.S. and Europe. However, by retaining rights to the Korean and Asian markets, as seen in the case of Leclaza, they can secure future royalties. Conducting their own clinical trials and regulatory processes will also build valuable expertise.

He concluded by highlighting the potential of anti-aging therapies as a differentiated field, which, if linked with South Korea’s medical tourism industry, could become a core growth sector.
