...www.pwc.com/us/pharma Aspiring giants How small pharmas can drive to $1 billion — and beyond PwC’s PRTM Management Consulting Aspiring giants Executive summary Amid the volatile blend of opportunity and challenge that characterizes the global pharmaceutical industry, only a few small companies have managed to catapult their revenue over the $1 billion mark over the past two decades. Whether they chose to expand their therapeutic area focus and product portfolios, enter new geographies, or grow their core business, these aspiring giants pursued three distinct strategies to jump-start growth: Leveraged core product and technology capabilities to launch differentiated products Used mergers and acquisitions to gain new products and/or expand geographic presence Built a strong, stable leadership team armed with a compelling vision and relentless drive The experiences of these winning companies offer lessons for today’s smaller pharma companies harboring the ambition to reach the $1 billion revenue mark. To achieve this milestone, these companies will need to excel in three areas: expanding a core area of expertise to deliver niche and valueadded products, adopting an acquisition and partnering mindset to expand product offerings and geographic presence, and attracting and retaining talented leaders. Focusing on these fronts can help position a pharma company to become a growth leader—rather than merely a follower—in tomorrow’s...

...THE PHARMACEUTICAL MARKET: INDIA - REVIEW The Indian pharmaceutical market is highly competitive and remains dominated by low-priced, domestically-produced generics. Despite having the second largest population in the world and a growing middle class with high healthcare expectations, India accounts for less than 2% of the world pharmaceutical market in value terms. In one of the world's better performing economies, spending on pharmaceuticals accounts for less than 1% of GDP and average per capita spending remains one of the lowest levels in the region. India’s biopharmaceutical sector is currently experiencing double digit growth and this is expected to continue, driven by the vaccines market. Growth drivers include education and increased awareness of disease prevention, increases in disposable income and government participation in immunisation programmes. Continued growth is also expected in the diagnostic and therapeutic segments, including cancer and diabetes. India is already known as the diabetes capital of the world and the number of diabetes patients in India is expected to grow to 70 million by 2025. Cancer therapies are also lucrative for many Indian companies due to high unmet need, increased awareness and the comparative affordability of domestically produced drugs. The Indian pharmaceutical industry is responsible for around 10% of world pharmaceutical production. Over the last few years, a number of Indian pharmaceutical companies have been targeted...

...The key issue affecting the pharmaceutical industry is the ability of the pharmaceutical industry to remain profitable and returning a high rate of return that has been historically been so. The Pharmaceutical industry is an industry in which the entry barriers are very high as the companies in the business must spend a large amount of money on research. And the research may only yield results in some cases, only 3 out of 10 drugs recoup their costs and takes around $800 Million and 15 years to release a new drug. The companies that dominate the industry usually have dominant companies in that rely upon very few of their drugs for returning revenues. As a standing testimony, 55% of Pfizers revenues are generated from just 3 drugs ($28 billion dollars!). Whilst there are challenges of prices and new regulations, the industry offers new opportunities 3 Alternatives: 1) Research and Develop drugs in the areas of chronic care, Healthier living such as nutritional business. As people from the baby boom age grow wiser and start to look for ways to prolong life with the least bit of worries for reliance on healthcare, there is a shift in people moving for nutritional drugs. 2) Research and develop in the areas of preventive medicine, diagnostics, genetic testing. It’s an age long drug that cannot seem to go wrong. With the increase in awareness in people, there is an increase in their wanting to try newer things, Genetic and generic medicines being an example of that. People...

...The effect of big pharma on healthcare EN 1320 26 May 2013 The effect of big pharma on healthcare Big pharmacy has always been a hot button issue, for as long as I can remember. It is proven that the large drug companies are using unethical practices to help boost sales. These practices in turn cost the patient more at the counter in the pharmacy. This also leads to shady practices by physicians. Fortune magazine reported that in 2008, the pharmaceutical industry continued to be in the top three most profitable industries in the United States for the past two decades. Studies show that marketing strategies used by pharmaceutical representatives such as education, samples, office support, and patient resources can increase brand recognition and influence prescribing. This leads to patients being influenced to spend more money on the brand name drugs, rather than the cheaper generic versions that work exactly the same. References Insert References Here.
