With a steadily increasing number of biologics coming to market, the demand for autoinjectors and similar devices continues to grow. The goal of events such as Injectable Drug Delivery (The World of Auto, Pen & Needle-Free Injectors: Advances in Devices and Technology) is to bring experts from around the world together to share experiences and best practices related to drug delivery. A number of leading industry experts have been invited to speak and attendees from around the world will be at this specialised event.

This is SHL GM Frank Isaksson’s sixth time to speak at the management forum’s annual conference in the UK. Held on 24-25 March 2011 at Le Meridien Hotel in London, participants will be given the opportunity to listen to a diverse number of speakers from both drug delivery companies and also pharmaceutical / biotechnology companies.

Commenting on the event, Frank Isaksson stated: “I will illustrate examples of both the right and wrong approaches I have observed when working towards launching an autoinjector combination product. When looking at the right combination product to use for your company’s drug there are a vast number of topics to consider. Working at SHL, a leading producer of autoinjectors and pen injectors, for 16 years now I have had the opportunity to be involved in a number of projects and understand potential pitfalls as well as best practices. I am confident that my talk will be helpful to those listening and I look forward to answering questions and having a stimulating discussion.”
