With this interactive audio conference, Windhover Managing Partner Roger Longman and Senior Writer Christopher Morrison will deliver the key biopharma insights and advice they and the entire Windhover team garnered not just from the meeting's sessions, but from the many one-on-one conversations we had with the event's senior-level attendees.

When taken together, these insights paint the clearest "in the know" picture of what's to come in health care strategy, financings, M&A, alliances and the venture-capital world.

Windhover's team is consistently ahead of the curve in identifying biopharmaceutical industry trends. Prepare yourselves and your teams for the challenges of the new year!

The discussion is backed by proprietary Windhover data, delivered in a convenient audio conference format, and capped off with an interactive Q&A round.

So join us, in the convenience of your own office, for a thought-provoking analysis by Windhover's expert editorial team. Grab your team (or several teams), a conference room at your office, a phone and a computer with Web access (that last one's optional). No travel required.

Key discussion highlights include:

  • What's the buzz in biotech M&A? Are there product or therapeutic categories ripe for consolidation? Specific deals in the works?
  • Which rumors are merely rumors, which make a lot of sense and why, and which are likely to produce the next big deal?
  • How will Big Pharma react to the new wave of genericizations, FDA challenges and reimbursement hurdles? Consolidation? Limited de-consolidation? Radical de-consolidation? Something no one’s talking about yet?
  • And, of course, the insights and findings Windhover's team has captured using its high-level and proprietary contacts throughout the meeting's duration.

Managing Partner
Windhover Information

Roger Longman is a Managing Partner at Windhover Information Inc. and has been involved with the health care industry for more than 20 years. Over the years, he has become recognized as one of the leading experts in pharm/bio dealmaking.

Longman is regularly asked to speak at many key industry events as well as at leading pharma and biotech companies. He lectures regularly at leading universities and co-directs, with The Wharton School, an annual week-long course on the pharmaceutical industry.

In 1983, Longman joined The Wilkerson Group as a writer covering the pharmaceutical and biotech industries for IN VIVO: The Business & Medicine Report.™ As editor of IN VIVO, he recognized the demand for health care transaction research and created a database to track health care transactions, the industry-leading Strategic Transactions Database.

In 1989, Longman, along with partner David Cassak, led a buyout of the publications business of The Wilkerson Group, forming Windhover Information Inc. Longman and Cassak, recognizing the demand for health care business investment information, launched various other monthly health care industry journals. In addition to IN VIVO, widely recognized as the premier provider of business intelligence in the health care industry, Windhover’s publications include Start-Up: Emerging Medical Ventures,™ and The RPM Report: Regulation / Policy / Market Access.™ In 2005, Windhover also acquired Medtech Insight Inc., and now publishes Medtech Insight: Medical Technology Market Intelligence.®

Mr. Longman was also critical in the creation of Windhover's conference division, which produces numerous influential conferences every year and is well-known for, among others, its Pharmaceutical Strategic Alliances, Euro-Biotech and BIO-Windhover meetings. Since the acquisition of Medtech Insight, Windhover also hosts that company’s respected Investment in Innovation (In3) partnering conferences around the world.

Longman completed his BA at Cornell University and an MA at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and then taught for three years at the European division of the University of Maryland.
