The pharmaceutical sector is witnessing sweeping cauldron of changes in the wake of disruptive technologies. Several pharma organisations are embracing premium technologies such as AI, machine learning, big data, blockchain, among others to revamp their traditional operational models. Targeted therapies are gaining traction to provide personalised medicines to patients. Companies have realised that personalised medicine, primarily designed based on the genetic make-up and molecular composition of an individual, is far more effective compared to a non-specific drug. Also, targeted therapy helps to pre-determine any disease that might be fatal for the patient.

Furthermore, with the widespread use of wearable technology, monitoring patients’ health have become easy for most pharma organisations. At the same, to safeguard the massive volumes of data generated by these smart devices, pharma institutions are incorporating AI to harness advanced computing power and analyse large volumes of data generated in real-time. In fact by feeding computers this data, pharmaceutical firms can even train algorithms to combat any predictable or unforeseen cyber attack, attempt to steal sensitive patient information, and more. Besides, with genetic sequencing technologies becoming cost-effective, pharma and life science companies are making giant strides in the field of gene editing, biosimilars, and generic drugs.

However, it is important to note that implementing and managing all these technologies becomes a daunting task for healthcare professionals. This is where outsourcing activities come in. In a world of sophisticated technologies, exponentially growing knowledge and a highly unstable economic environment, pharma stand in need for a reliable partner that can make drug development and distribution seamless. These partners specialise in preclinical, clinical and post-clinical services have been instrumental in accomplishing success for the pharmaceutical companies.
