Pharmaceuticals
Enabling innovative medicines for global health
Shaping Medicine with Smarter and Sustainable Solutions
Along with Artificial Intelligence and digital therapeutics integration, blockchain technology inclusion is a must for secure supply chain monitoring at all ends. Pharmaceutical companies must strategize better to combat supply chain disruptions, economic uncertainty, geopolitical pressures, and pandemic-triggered R&D gaps. A “zero trust” approach is mandatory to resolve the gaps and ensure that the cyber vulnerability of all suppliers is neutralized. Industry participants also need to take a stand on the “China plus one” concept while addressing the impact of climate change on global supply chains.
The pharmaceutical industry, traditionally slow to adopt new technologies, is experiencing rapid transformation. Various key advances such as Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation, advancement in conducting clinical trials, sustainability, green initiatives, and digital technologies, etc., will have a major impact on the pharmaceutical industry over the next 5-10 years. The small molecules will continue to rule the pharmaceutical market, too. However, the usage and popularity of biologics are also expected to grow faster in the near future. Gradually, more innovative and effective drugs will be launched over the next few years.
Personalized medicine is on the rise, recognizing individual treatment needs. Pharmaceutical companies will adopt new supply chain software technologies to improve resilience and competitiveness. Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation are enhancing efficiency in analyzing data and drug development processes. Despite industry complexity, the future looks promising with ongoing technological advancements and a commitment to innovation.

Real World Data (RWD) Integration
The integration of Real World Data (RWD) in pharmaceuticals is picking up pace very rapidly, driven by the increasing adoption to enrich drug development, clinical trials, and regulatory approvals. It is expected to grow to USD 3.8 billion by 2028 at a CAGR of 18 percent. RWD, from patient records, wearables, and health databases, is a trend allowing businesses to optimize drug efficacy, improve safety monitoring, and accelerate market access. This comprises huge growth prospects for investors with increased demand for data-driven insights across the pharmaceutical sector. Companies that put RWD at the front of innovation, cost reduction, and personalized treatments are indeed set to shape an increasingly evidence-based healthcare landscape.
How Can We Help You?
Strategic foresight methodologies are widely used in the life sciences industry to identify medium to long-term risks and opportunities. The process involves assessment and identification of emerging technologies and gaps at an early stage. It is a way to scan, identify, and stay up-to-date on critical current and emerging technologies. Horizon scanning helps to understand potential business impact, benefits, costs, adoption challenges, risks, and technology debt. It also helps to understand the security factors, skills, and implementation considerations of potentially critical technologies and broader implications. Identifying opportunities and potential risks can be difficult amidst prevalent market noise and hectic day-to-day work schedules. Strategic foresight can be a great way to do this.
