Adamed also took part in other events of the 12th European Economic Congress. Katarzyna Dubno, Director for External Relations and Health Economics, participated in a panel discussion titled “Protectionism, patriotism, the market.”

The debate attended by Katarzyna Dubno addressed topics such as the economic potential of Polish enterprises on foreign markets, ways to shorten international supply chains and the meaning of economic patriotism in the 21st century.

“For the pharmaceutical industry, economic patriotism is about development, but also about national security. And it is up to the state to guarantee this security. For 5 years, we have been waiting for instruments to increase the production of pharmaceuticals in Poland. This morning, at a meeting with entrepreneurs, the Prime Minister announced that the government was about to finish developing a mechanism to help achieve that,” said Katarzyna Dubno during the panel discussion.

Currently, Adamed’s portfolio features about 500 products offered to patients in 70 countries. The company employs 2,200 people and holds almost 200 pharmaceutical patents. Its representative offices are located in Spain, Russia, the Czech Republic, Vietnam, Italy, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Slovakia, and Ukraine.
