The AMR Industry Alliance brings together over 100 research-based pharmaceutical, generics, biotech and diagnostic companies and associations, to drive and measure the life-sciences’ industry progress to curb #AMR.
The AMR Industry Alliance ensures that signatories collectively deliver on the specific commitments made in the Declaration (January 2016) and the Roadmap (September 2016) and measures industry’s progress in the fight against antimicrobial resistance.
