Many observers believe the traditional pharmaceutical company model is broken. 
As patents expire, pharmaceutical companies are having an increasingly 
difficult time filling their product pipelines with new blockbuster drugs. 
Firms are responding by cutting back on the number of research programs they 
pursue and the number of researchers that pursue them. They are trying simpler 
internal structures and more complex external alliances. Results, however, are 
slow in coming.  

Rudy Baum will moderate a discussion with Prof. Ronald Breslow and John 
LaMattina on what’s broken in the classical drug company model, what’s fixable, 
and what types of pharmaceutical companies will succeed in the future.

*Reservations must be made 48 hours in advance. Cancellations less than 24 
hours before the luncheon will be invoiced. Guests without reservations are
