Workshop


Pre-Conference Interactive Workshop
Maximising brand assets by excellent Lifecycle Management planning and execution

Wednesday 28th January 2009


Led by: Dr Tony Ellery, ellery pharma consulting
Former Global Head of Lifecycle Management in Portfolion Management, Novartis

09:30 - 10:00 Coffee & Registration
10:00 - 16:00 Workshop
Timing includes refreshment breaks

Workshop format
The purpose of the workshop is to allow delegates to engage in knowledge sharing with their peers in a smaller, less formal environment than the main conference. As such the audience size will typically be no more than 20 participants in order to enable maximum interaction between the workshop leader and delegates. The format is also more interactive, with less emphasis on ‘lecture-style’ presentations and more emphasis on case studies, group discussions, exercises and Q&A sessions.

Key topics to be discussed:

  • The changing environment for lifecycle management

  • Structures and processes to optimise lifecycle management

  • Sustainable LCM strategies for the future

About your Workshop Leader:
Dr Tony Ellery was a practicing veterinarian in the U.K. before moving to the Swiss pharmaceutical industry in Basel in 1974, where he has since occupied positions of increasing seniority in research, development, marketing and sales at different companies, including Roche, Solco, Ciba Vision and Novartis.

He led R&D in the Novartis Ophthalmics Business Unit for 8 years, during which time his teams succeeded in gaining 3 NCE approvals each in the US and Europe.

For four years, Tony was the Global Head of Development and then Project Management for Novartis’ Mature Products Business Unit, which enjoys sales of over $4 billion per year and is responsible for the seemingly immortal Voltaren (diclofenac) brand.

Tony’s last position at Novartis was Global Head of Life Cycle Management (LCM) in Pharma Portfolio Management, advising project and brand teams throughout Novartis on brand strategies and LCM.
In 2005 he led a major project on LCM across Novartis Pharma. This led to structural and organizational changes which strengthened the company focus on LCM, also with regard to the interfaces with Novartis’ generics and OTC businesses.

Tony has served as a member of the Ciba-Geigy Research Advisory Board and the Novartis Pharma Development Management Board. He has been a member of the faculty of the European Course for Life Science Executives of the University of Basel, lecturing on lifecycle management, and has spoken at many conferences in Europe and the U.S. on lifecycle, project and portfolio management.

Tony retired from Novartis in October 2008 to become a consultant to the pharmaceutical industry, especially in the areas of lifecycle and project management.
