16th IAMERS Annual Meeting - San Juan

IAMERS members are back from San Juan, and the 16th IAMERS Annual Meeting. The weather was beautiful and everyone seemed to have a good time. By the end of our short time there, many had excellent tans!

The presentations were very interesting, with a focus on Latin America. We had speakers from Mexico and Chile, as well as a presentation on the practical side of doing business in Latin America.

Although everyone was itching to get outside on Saturday, I think many ears perked up when we heard from the FDA. There will be changes in our industry and regulation will be increasing. This week IAMERS will release the final version of our position paper on how we believe regulation should be handled. As I have stated before, IAMERS is not against regulation. However, we want our members to be treated fairly. All – including those who are small businesses, must be able to comply.

My favorite talks in San Juan were Wayne Webster’s very interesting chronology on the evolution of our industry. It tied in nicely to what the FDA had to say.

I also found Pat Hiney’s presentation on financing deals in this money-tight economy very insightful. How bankers and lenders view the world, in the present moment, was very helpful.
