In his discussion Mr. Melnyk will reflect on the challenges of growing a North American pharmaceutical business from Canada competing with the giant global multinational companies with market caps in excess of $100 billion, annual revenue in excess of $20 billion and that spend upwards of half a billion dollars developing and launching a product.
