The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry brings
together most of the companies in Britain producing prescription
medicines, other organisations involved in pharmaceutical
research and development and those with an interest in the
pharmaceutical industry operating in the United Kingdom.
ABPI member companies manufacture more than 80 per cent of
the medicines prescribed through the National Health Service
and are major exporters to countries all over the world.
The Association provides a wide range of services and support for
its members. With its staff of 60 located in Central London,
it represents the views of the pharmaceutical industry to
the Government, politicians, academia, the media and the
general public. It also maintains offices in Scotland and
Wales. The ABPI is the leading trade association in its sector, maintaining
close and regular contacts with political opinion leaders and Government
bodies and agencies at both national and
European levels.
Full membership is available to companies in the United Kingdom which
supply prescription medicines for human use. Companies engaged
in research and development in the UK, with a view to marketing such
medicines, or licensing them to others, are also eligible
for full membership. Several are small
to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and biotech companies.
Research Affiliate membership is open to companies engaged
in research and development, or simply the development of
medicines for human use, but which have no turnover in
such products. Many are contract research or contract development
organisations; Research Affiliates, in addition to receiving
information, can participate in relevant medical, scientific,
technical and regulatory activities of the Association.
General Affiliates represent a range of organisations with an interest
in the pharmaceutical industry operating in the UK.
They receive a regular flow of literature and information
and
may attend a variety of meetings, conferences and events.
