ZhongMei Consulting was founded on the vision of bringing Chinese life sciences innovation onto the global stage. China has traditionally been an importer of western goods and services, but we believe the Chinese healthcare industry is poised to become an exporter of biopharmaceutical intellectual property as well.

Globalization

In the beginning, developed economies import existing technologies and business models into the Chinese market.

 

The underlying philosophy is that the success factors that made the product successful in in the US or EU will be the same in China

 

Abbvie and Jaansen import, receive CFDA approval, and commercialize IMBRUVICA in Chinese markets

Localization

Once the product and brand is established, local customs and cultures are considered in order to better appeal to local Chinese customers.

 

The underlying philosophy is that the foreign product is sound, but slight tweaks to branding or administration may be needed

Chinese KOL’s recommend IMBRUVICA dosage stratification for certain Chinese patient populations

Domestic Innovation

As the product and brand continues to mature in China, innovations and improvements are made to augment or even replace the original product.

 

The underlying philosophy is that Chinese innovators know their market best, and should develop and implement improvements

Beigene runs clinical trials in China for a new BTK inhibitor with higher potency and selectivity

Reverse Innovation

As domestic innovation results in entirely new products, exporting Chinese technologies and products allows for global commercialization

 

The underlying philosophy is that the now locally developed Chinese product can compete and win globally against international products

Beigene gains FDA approval for marketing BRUKINSA in the United States

Who We Are

We are a boutique life science consulting and capital advisory firm that specializes in partnering with Chinese pharmaceutical and medical device companies to evaluate out-licensing opportunities for their products in the United States and in-licensing products from around the globe. We are a group of seasoned life science industry veterans with deep experience in US – China collaborations. While there are many companies that focus on representing Western pharmaceutical products into the domestic Chinese market, we are the only consulting firm that specializes in representing the Chinese pharmaceutical company in these transactions.

How We Work

We believe in the collaboration of American and Chinese professionals to advance lifesaving medicines from patients across the world. Our team and culture is structured to reflect that, combining decades of life science commercialization experience in the United States with a deep understanding of the Chinese healthcare industry and business culture.
