Systech International, a global technology solutions leader and innovator in serialization for the pharmaceutical industry, has recently participated in a series of seminars organized by the United States Department of Commerce and the Consulate Generals of Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, and Mumbai. The Single Company Promotion (SCP) seminar programme created by the commerce department showcases and advances the best technologies developed in the United States to Indian executives from a variety of industries. Over 80 senior executives representing more than 35 companies attended the invitation-only series from February 28-March 2, 2017.
Systech was selected as a presenting company because it offers mission-critical solutions to the Indian pharmaceutical market in two focused areas—regulatory compliance and anti-counterfeiting. The seminars offered the most current knowledge, best practices, and a complete end-to-end solution for total compliance with the U.S. Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA), a secure supply chain, and the ability to protect a company’s brand anytime, anywhere on the globe.
Dr. Avi Chaudhuri, senior global partner, presented the keynote sessions on Systech’s technology solutions. According to Chaudhuri, "We were there to inform companies about the necessity of deploying serialization for global Track & Trace mandates, as well as to present best practices for complying within stated timeframes. Our presentation also included information about the shortcomings of serialization, as a consumer-driven authentication tool for brand protection, and how Systech's new anti-counterfeiting solution can address this issue for the Indian domestic market. Our non-additive technology solution, which cannot be replicated by counterfeiters, provides companies with a powerful new method for brand protection, as well as a complement to a company’s consumer engagement activities."
Systech is the global leader in the field of serialization and traceability, with a 30-year history providing vision solutions to the pharmaceutical industry. Its vision systems also provide the company with an innovative solution to protect brands and deter counterfeiters, regardless of industry. In addition to Dr. Chaudhuri’s presentations, other presenters included Arun Gupta, former global CIO of Cipla, who spoke on how to successfully leverage information technology and validating a seamless solution; and Ranga Iyer, former managing director of Wyeth and past President of the Organisation of Pharmaceutical Producers of India (OPPI), who moderated attendee discussion sessions.
