The patent system provides incentives for enterprising inventors to invest in costly but socially important research. However, alongside the development of innovative goods, medicines included, the ambitions of counterfeiters are growing.

The main mission of the Romanian Medicines Serialisation Organisation (OSMR) is to manage the National Medicines Verification System (NMVS), through which we ensure that every medicine put into circulation on the national market is authentic. As General Manager, I have had the privilege of overseeing the implementation and operation of Romania’s NMVS, a cornerstone in the fight against falsified medicines.
