Purpose:

  Globalization of research and development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical drugs has progressed, and cooperation in regulatory activities amongst pharmaceutical regulatory agencies has become a necessity. Nowadays, Asian countries have become significant in the area of clinical development and manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, and therefore, PMDA strives to strengthen the collaborative relationship with the Asian regulatory agencies.
  This symposium is cohosted by ThaiFDA, the regulatory agency of Thailand, and PMDA, the regulatory agency of Japan, as in the 1st Symposium held in 2013. The aim of this symposium is to continue to strengthen Thailand and Japan's mutual relationship and cooperative framework for pharmaceutical regulation and promote thorough understanding of regulatory systems of the two host countries amongst the pharmaceutical industries.

Thai Food and Drug Administration (Thai FDA), Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency (PMDA)
