Susana Almeida, PhD
Secretary General, IGBA

Dr. Susana Almeida was nominated Secretary General of the International Generic and Biosimilar medicines Association (IGBA) in January 2024.

With over 20 years of substantial contribution to the role of the European and international generic and biosimilar medicines industry’s trade bodies and companies, Susana also brings significant experience in the process of international harmonisation of standards through the International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH).
