What are the key growth indicators for the global bio/pharmaceutical market in 2023 and over the next five years, and how will the industry perform over this time. That is the operative question for bio/pharma companies and their suppliers,

DCAT Week’s flagship program, Pharma Industry Outlook, will answer that question by providing need-to-know market intelligence on the current and projected performance of the bio/pharma industry. Graham Lewis, Vice President of Global Pharma Strategy, IQVIA, a business intelligence firm regarded as the gold standard for bio/pharmaceutical market analysis, will provide the latest market data and trends. 

A key issue is how the industry will perform in the post-pandemic environment with the transition of the global COVID-19 pandemic to a new phase where vaccines and therapeutics are available but are used at different levels and if growth will return to pre-pandemic levels. The program will address these all-important questions:

  • What are the growth prospects globally and in key geographic markets?
  • How is the industry faring in new drug development and what can be expected near term? 
  • Where is the growth in small molecules, biologics, and new modalities such as cell and gene therapies?
