Denmark has assumed the EU Presidency until the end of the year, and for the Danish Medicines Agency, this includes hosting a total of 25 meetings within the European framework. On this theme page, you will find brief information about the meetings, and we will continuously update the page with relevant news.
EU Presidency 2025
As the country holding the EU Presidency, Denmark will over the next six months take on a leading and coordinating role in all negotiations, processes, and meetings where the extensive cooperation between the 27 member states is shaped and decided.
The Danish Medicines Agency will lead the continued work on a number of important agendas in the field of medicines. Specifically, the Agency will chair 25 informal expert meetings focusing on areas such as pharmaceuticals, medical devices, clinical trials, medicines regulation, pricing, and reimbursement.
On this theme page, you will find brief information about the 25 meetings, and we will continuously update the page throughout the Presidency.
With the EU Presidency, Denmark has a unique opportunity to strengthen and shape European cooperation on medicines, and we look forward to the task.
