OXFORD, England, July 15 --
- Senior Executives at Pfizer, Johnson Johnson, GlaxoSmithKline, and Other Big
Pharma use New Media to Bring Fresh Exchange
PharmaTelevision, the authoritative channel for the pharmaceutical,
biotechnology and related industries, announced today the launch of its new
service, PharmaTelevision Premium Content. PTV Premium Content will include PTV
News - a daily news and analysis service to be launched in August. Subscription
to the service will be free until 30 September, 2009. Dr Fintan Walton, CEO of
PharmaVentures - the company behind PharmaTelevision - said, Television captures
and delivers something unique, recognising that business is ultimately about the
people in it - whether it’s a part of deal making, or discovery and
development, or about a company’s ability to finance itself. It’s
not a surprise to us that PharmaTelevision has become ’must view’ TV
for many senior executives and managers.
Dr Walton continues, Launch of this new service means we can deliver to our
subscribers great television programming and integrated news and analysis
information services. PharmaTelevision addresses the current issues and future
predictions of the industry, including those of the top companies, through news,
analysis, interviews, panels and discussions. Interviewees come from companies
such as Johnson Johnson, Merck Co., sanofi-aventis, Genzyme, MerckSerono, NICE
UK, and Roche. As well as PTV News, current programmes include PharmaVentures
Business Review; The Regional Report; The Financial Report; and PharmaDeals(R)
Commentaries, and bring the major industry players straight to desktops - on
demand from the viewer.
Dr Walton says, This year, development to PharmaTelevision has been rapid as we
meet the demand from our discerning audience. Our subscribers can look forward
to significant upgrades that help them uncover further value in the service, and
not least will shortly see news services compiled jointly by top experts from
both the pharmaceutical and the television world. Subscribers to
PharmaTelevision Premium Content can access over 200 high quality interviews and
panel discussions filmed since June 2006. Dr Walton concludes, It’s an
exciting time for us and our viewers.
