Strategic Growth • Portfolio Optimisation – registering existing AMCo products into new markets where the product isn’t currently registered or sold, and using the existing manufacturers to make the product (at least 40 submissions made in 2014) • Product Development – creating new products with a contract development partner, whereby AMCo retains full ownership rights to the product, and freedom to choose who to manufacture the product • In-Licensing– buying the rights to sell a third party’s product in a defined territory, and agreeing for the licensor to supply the product to AMCo for an agreed period of time (typically 5 years) • Product Acquisitions– buying the permanent rights to own an existing product, in a defined territory (sometimes global e.g. Fucithalmic). The seller may wish to continue making the product, but more often would require AMCo to find a new supplier within 2-3 years
