Event Overview
The pharmaceutical sector is currently in transition where by 2020, no pharma company will be able to profit alone. With most big pharma companies coming off patent and the sudden growth in generic companies, pharma companies need to improve their R&D productivity, reduce costs, tap the potential of emerging economies and switch from selling medicines to managing outcomes.
This in return causes pharma companies to revamp their supply chain cycle; emphasizing on reducing time to market crucial product launches and enhancing competitive advantage by developing agile and responsive supply chain to easily react to changes in demand. Having said that, their key deliverables also remain the same; ensuring the security and integrity of supply chain and patient safety.
