Global sales in the industry top 640 billion each year and it has a market size of 1.52 trillion dollars. It employs over 1 million individuals in mainland Europe alone and approves around 40 new medicines each with the average cost of developing a drug around £400 million from initial discovery through to approval.
Thanks to advancement in medicine, people now live on average 30 years longer than a century years ago.
Lean Manufacturing in Pharmaceutical is now key in helping the industry cope with Brexit, and the impact this will have going forward. For example there are concerns raised around the future regulation of pharmaceuticals, and the prospect of damaging disruption to cross-EU drug supply chains.
