1) 10 Questions To Consider When Moving from A DCP Close Out To Product Launch
For many companies bringing a product to market, the biggest issue to contend with is the matter of finalising the regulatory procedure. However, for small and medium life science companies that might not have a presence in a particular market, this is not the biggest issue.

Regulators are shifting more responsibility onto manufacturers to instill quality throughout their operations and throughout their product lifecycles.
