Pharmaceutical and healthcare industries worldwide are seeing growth,
innovation and M&A activity. On the one hand, advances in healthcare
delivery, increase in the average life expectancy, and changes in
lifestyles and socio-economic patterns have led to changed disease
profiles. On the other hand, soaring drug discovery development
time, prolonged regulation-mandated testing, complex review processes,
rapidly escalating R&D expenditures and competition are compelling
challenges within which pharmaceutical companies operate today.
Healthcare providers and pharma companies typically seek research
around new products and services, geographies and competitor activity.
Research often tends to be complex given the high level of domain
expertise required in the assessment of the technical, legal and
regulatory aspects.
