JNB-Développement (hereafter referred to as “JNB-D”) is a consulting company dedicated to the healthcare industry which was established in April 1992 by Jacques N. Biot, a former senior government official and pharma industry executive. The JNB-D concept recognizes that healthcare is influenced by three major drivers of change:

-	Science and technology: essential in driving therapeutic progress
-	Regulation: critical in ensuring that patients' safety remains the key priority and is appropriately protected by society
-	Economics: vital in overcoming the financial constraints faced by healthcare systems throughout the world

Building upon its initial foundation as a strategic consulting boutique, JNB-D has continually strengthened its offering by adding complementary services that are responsive to the evolving demands of the healthcare market. With its integrated approach to addressing complex issues in healthcare, JNB-D is well positioned to support the needs of not only the international community of pharmaceutical, biotechnology, diagnostic and medical technology companies but also the needs of other key industry players such as healthcare providers, payers, industry and patient associations. Whatever the clients' needs, JNB-D’s multidisciplinary team of consultants is ready to respond with innovative, tailored solutions.
