Crisis is the time when true & powerful leaders emerge. COVID-19 is one such crisis time we have never seen earlier. We are living through this pandemic and looking forward that humans emerge victorious soon without much loss.

Playing an important role in making this happen are the pharma and life science leaders who sensed the need of the hour much earlier and fine-tuned their business processes & strategies. Researching and developing vaccine in a jet-speed is a challenge that they are still working on countering.

Pharma and life science leaders are indeed at the forefront of this war. However, their challenges seem just multiplying. While patent cliff and ever shirking R&D

budget have always been there, delivering faster, safer medicines at an affordable price is yet another challenge in the current times.
