Who We Are

Patients and Patents is a patient-focused resource whose goal is to inform and engage patient groups, advocates and other stakeholders from around the world on issues surrounding medical innovation and access to treatments.

Patients and Patents works to:

• Inform visitors about issues affecting access to medicines and the global research and development environment;
• Highlight innovative partnerships and strategies that improve access to new health technologies and enhance medical research; and
• Engage stakeholders in the ongoing discussion on global access to medicines and medical research and development.

To ensure continued improvements in global health, Patients and Patents encourages policies and strategies that support and promote a strong environment for medical research and innovation.
Patients and Patents accepts and welcomes financial support from individuals organizations and businesses that support our goals of promoting medical research and development and improving patient access to medicines.
