Membership Requirements

The CHLA invites organizations active in the Canadian healthcare industry to join us. Membership is exercised by individual representatives who must have direct responsibility for negotiating and/or approving strategic alliances for the organizations they represent.

Strategic alliances are understood as:

  • The licensing-in or licensing-out of products or services
  • The co-promotion or co-marketing of products or services
  • The co-development of products or services
  • The buying or selling of products or services

Organizations eligible for membership include:

  • Companies that develop or supply prescription and non-prescription pharmaceuticals, diagnostic products, surgical supplies and health & beauty aids.
  • Companies that promote or sell to pharmacies (directly or indirectly), to MDs or to consumers (in accordance with governmental and professional regulations).
  • R&D organizations seeking to out-license healthcare products or services in Canada.
  • University or other research-based institutions active in healthcare.
  • Healthcare consultants who facilitate strategic alliances.
