Young Innovators of Medicines

The Young Innovators of Medicines form the youth branch of the Innovative Medicines Association. This is a trade association for 44 drug companies with a Dutch branch. The youth branch was founded in 2013, under the then name Jong Nefarma. The members of the Association have put forward 22 high potentials to participate in the youth department. In recent years, young people themselves have defined themes such as talent and development, partnership with other young (care) associations, connecting young people within the Association, and debate and advice on important topics in the pharmaceutical industry.
