Market Access

We assist Pharma & MedTech companies in assessing and accessing Eastern European, South Caucasian, and Central Asian markets. Knowing and understanding the CIS region and people around here, we support decision-makers with vital knowledge on policies, regulations, processes, and practices.

Аdvising companies in their Road-to-Market Pathway

In our approach, we distinguish three stages of entering the market in the region we cover. We outline these by functions and depth of analysis and insights needed:

(1) Early Advice. The very first stage, where we help companies to understand the potential of the whole region or the pre-selected set of countries, to identify existing barriers for successful commercialization and market access process, to map stakeholders, compare registered prices, find out vital information on pricing & reimbursement, and to analyze future consumers initially.

(2) Market Access Roadmap. One of the most important stages for companies is understanding all steps needed to go off in order to start selling, to get reimbursement, to register a price, or apply for listing in the essential medicines list, etc. UPharma Consulting develops comprehensive market access roadmaps taking into consideration therapeutic areas, sales channels, marketing strategies, and other factors, important for the client. We offer our 10+ years of expertise in these markets, an established network of industry experts, and regulatory requirements knowledge.

(3) Pre-Launch. The stage of getting prepared for the product launch, which requires a working business model, effective team, marketing and brand plan, and other pre-marketing elements required per each market in the region. We assist companies here as well.
