    Bertram Haussler, Chairman of the Board of Management, IGES Institut will be presenting the host nation address, which will be focused on active measures to improve the health situation of those living with rare diseases in Germany.

    Some of the topical areas of discussion will include regulatory developments, strategies for best route to market, pricing and reimbursement concerns including the controversial German pricing mechanism. Other conference highlights to expect this year will include:
    • SIX spotlight sessions
    • Opening keynote from Alexion Pharma
