Smart Pharma Thematic Research Report 2021: The Importance of Artificial Intelligence and Big Data - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Smart Pharma - Thematic Research" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This Smart Pharma report examines the integration of smart technologies across the pharmaceutical industry value chain, assesses COVID-19 impact on the uptake of smart technologies in pharma and importance of partnering with technology vendors to enable a roll-out of innovative technologies.

The COVID-19 pandemic has given businesses an unprecedented opportunity to accelerate and implement technology-fueled changes to the way they operate. Even though digital transformation and smart technologies uptake had already begun pre-pandemic, COVID-19 made this process even more pressing.

While in the past the pharmaceutical sector used to display a more conservative stance toward the adoption of new technologies, the COVID-19 pandemic was a major catalyst for the industry to rethink and redefine their operations and embrace digital transformation at a faster pace.

For pharmaceutical companies, the pandemic forced many to rethink and readjust their drug development process, manufacturing, supply chains, marketing strategies, and end-customer reach. Although pharmaceutical companies mainly relied on technologies before the pandemic to enhance internal processes, now digital technologies are becoming necessary to ensure business continuity and to gain competitive edge.
