Last years’ geopolitical changes have been amending the pharmaceutical industry and market, making governments and businesses review their supply chain, business partners’ countries of origin and other vital aspects to ensure business continuation and provision of comprehensive medical services.

Recognising Italy’s excellence in life science we are determined with the assistance of ASSORAM to embark on establishing long-term partnerships where Latvia can share its know-how built over many decades and is renowned internationally.
