Each of the major pharma players is investing in the technology at some level, and there are a growing number of applications that address target and drug discovery, preclinical and clinical development, and post-approval activities.

INDUSTRY NEWS & INSIGHTS

THOUGHT LEADERSHIP

  • How to Get Pharma Leaders to Wrap Their Minds—and Their Arms—Around Advanced Analytics :The business of pharma is becoming more data-driven—from R&D to commercial—yet many pharma companies still struggle to garner leaders’ buy-in to build and operate the analytics programs that they need to fuel their success. They face tough challenges, including overcoming skepticism, proving the program’s value and scalability, finding the right talent and ensuring organizational collaboration.  | Shreyas Murthi, ZS Associates
  • Biopharma’s New Growth Machine: Three signs indicate biopharma is facing compressive disruption that could threaten traditional approaches. Biopharma companies that embrace New Science are driving exceptional growth and mitigating the disruptive forces of compression. Find out how leaders in New Science are using digital, data and genomics to reshape the biopharma landscape and patient care. | Stuart Henderson, Accenture
  • How can automation improve outpatient care while reducing costs? Healthcare often sees automation as a luxury—very few healthcare organisations are exploiting the benefits that automation has to offer. But as it has the potential to reduce staffing costs and improve quality and efficiency, more organisations should see it as a valuable opportunity during this time of financial challenges.  | Francesca MacVean and Gareth Fitzgerald, PA Consulting
  • Artificial Intelligence in Pharma: Set Your Expectations Appropriately -The question of the progress with applying artificial intelligence in pharma is not solely a digital transformation issue. It’s also a broader innovation issue. Innovation is the result of disciplined experimentation and in most use cases pharmaceutical manufacturers are experimenting with emerging technologies.  | Paul Schrimpf and Tony Fross, Prophet
