Austria's Pharmig looks to "sharpen" image

20 July 2008

Austria's drug industry association, Pharmig, has confirmed that its president, Hubert Dressler, is to remain in his post at least until April 2009, despite local media speculation about a possible change at the top. Mr Dressler is the operational managing director of the local subsidiary of French drug major Sanofi-Aventis. The Pharmig's secretary general, Jan Oliver Huber, stressed that "the executive committee unanimously confirmed [Mr Dressler] remaining in office at the last closed conference."

The Pharmig meeting also decided to expand the group's executive committee. The newcomers are Kurt Herpel (MSD), Beat Kasper (Roche) and Andreas Kronberger (Baxter). Mr Huber added that the 10-member executive team will "sharpen" the Pharmig's public profile.
