All the vital news, analysis, and commentary curated by our industry experts.
The pharmaceutical industry is undergoing constant changes resulting from declining profit margins, cost pressure, and the necessity to replenish pipelines and maximize peak sales, while at the same time meeting stringent regulatory and legislative requirements. Although digital transformation was seen as one of the ways to ease these pressures, the COVID-19 crisis is making digital transformation even more pressing. As the pandemic takes its toll on businesses, pharma is also forced to adopt to an ever-changing environment defined by supply chain disruptions, delays in clinical trials, evolving regulatory requirements, intense competition, lockdowns, and social distancing norms.
Technology is no longer viewed as enabling business, but as driving it. It is fundamental to number of operations and is changing the value chain in a disruptive way. As the new technologies are being adopted by the healthcare industry it is important to understand what opportunities and challenges they bring.
