APO Alumni 2024
This year's meeting of the Academy of Patient Organisations - APO ALUMNI took place under the wings of the British Embassy in Prague. Almost 110 of us gathered in the historic premises of the Embassy with a beautiful view of the metropolis, vast majority being representatives of patient organisations. The British Ambassador Matt Field welcomed us by recalling that it had been more than ten years since we had last met at the British Embassy and was pleasantly surprised that our numbers had more than tripled since then. "Today is not just a celebration of patient organisations, but a celebration of what each of you is doing for patients in the Czech Republic," he said. He also mentioned that it is the Association of Innovative Pharmaceutical Industries (AIFP), which also represents British companies, that is behind the APO project.
