MSD Hospital Group Partnership Approach
Partnership opportunities close to our current and pipeline therapeutic areas Opportunities may be MSD alone or in collaboration with other pharmacy/industry partnersFocus, at least initially on smaller, short term, patient outcome focused and measurable initiativesLarge partnership groups with broad, long term, difficult to measure objectives are less attractive.We are committed to MSD’s ethical and compliance standards and requirements. When working with industry partners, recognise that compliance requirements will differ by companyPartnership engagements may identify potential business development opportunities
