Historically, Interpharma was founded by the major Swiss research-based pharmaceutical companies. With the opening up of the industry in recent years and the associated sharp rise in membership to 23 research-based pharmaceutical companies today, Interpharma has developed into the umbrella organisation for research-based pharmaceutical companies in Switzerland. Its broad support throughout Switzerland strengthens Interpharma’s position in promoting the international competitiveness of Switzerland as a centre for research and pharmaceuticals. Interpharma works closely with all stakeholders in the Swiss healthcare system and international organisations, in particular with interest groups representing the research-based pharmaceutical industry in Switzerland and abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
