Members
The Pharmaceutical Industry Association members feel proud of their role as a very important part of the Puerto Rican community and of the many initiatives undertaken, individually and collectively, to improve the quality of life in our country.
Our members are pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies organized in manufacturing operations and commercial entities in Puerto Rico, each represented by its respective General Manager.
Associate Members
In 1997, PIA-PR incorporated the Associate Membership concept and invited a select group of pharmaceutical industry suppliers, vendors, consultants and professionals participate to forge a mutually beneficial long-term alliance.
Chosen because of their tradition of support to the pharmaceutical industry, these organizations are representative of PIA-PR’s business partners and have enriched the Association’s member companies with their quality products and services. Following are excerpts from their Associate Member organization’s many products and services.
