Healthcare
The international healthcare market is a vibrant and dynamic industry that is constantly evolving and changing. Each part of this sector has its own issues and challenges to deal with and overcome.
Pharmaceuticals
Over the past few years there have been a number of mergers of small and mid-size companies to gain a higher profile on the global stage. Some large pharmaceutical companies have promising pipelines whilst others are struggling to find new molecules, but all of the R&D led companies are constantly battling against the demand for lower prices and the threat posed by generics.
Biotechnology
Recently the biotechnology sector has been rejuvenated through a number of high profile licensing deals and trade sales with big pharmaceutical companies looking to bolster their pipelines. The biotechnology sector has become a key part of the innovative and research into new products and we expect to see further consolidation as well as the arrival of new players on the scene.
Consumer Healthcare
The consumer healthcare industry has also seen some major acquisitions leading to the consolidation of the market place to a handful of major branded manufacturers. The main challenges facing this sector include a host of own label product manufacturers, potential EU regulations around the labelling of products, and ongoing discussions over claims that are made for each product.
