LONDON--(Business Wire)--
The Healthcare group at Frost & Sullivan
(http://www.healthcare.frost.com/) is pleased to announce that it will
be hosting an interactive analyst briefing on the European Drug
Delivery Market on 31 July 2008 at 3pm BST (2pm GMT).

   Drug delivery is a fast growing and highly dynamic segment of the
pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry. A number of factors have
contributed to the growth of this area, including poor efficacies,
patent expirations and the urgent need for life cycle management for
current drugs.

   "The demand for novel drug delivery systems is rising and
pharmaceutical companies have been involved in developing innovative
methods," observes Frost & Sullivan Industry Analyst Sylvia Miriyam
Findlay. "Impending patent expirations will stimulate a surge in novel
drug delivery methods for existing products, while sophisticated
reformulation will generate substantial revenues in the European
pharmaceutical market."

   This briefing will provide an analysis of industry challenges in
this market, with particular focus on the two most important segments
- pulmonary and transdermal drug delivery. Pharmaceutical and
biotechnology companies and drug delivery companies will benefit from
the discussion which will also highlight potential opportunities.
