Bridging the gap

The key to a culture-conscious pharma partnership

Partnerships are not just about expanding our reach and product portfolio, but also about creating a powerful engine for innovation and delivering better healthcare solutions for people affected by illness.

While the complex nuances of these relationships are not to be underestimated, we believe that by prioritising cultural understanding and collaboration, we can unlock the full potential of such alliances.

Here’s a closer look at what makes our partnerships thrive:

  • Strategic fit matters: Taking the time to assess cultural compatibility in the early stage of a deal is crucial. This includes understanding each other’s strategies and how you can work towards a common goal
  • Effective product differentiation: Having a clear and compelling value proposition for any partnered product is essential. This, alongside a well-defined commercial strategy, ensures we’re bringing something truly unique to the market
  • Continuous evaluation is key: Partnerships are never static; they need to continuously evolve with the environment around them. We challenge the status quo through steering committees and review meetings have been beneficial for both sides. This collaborative spirit, moving beyond just the product, allows us to build future-proof partnerships
  • Long-term success doesn’t happen overnight: Open communication is the lifeblood of any long-lasting relationship, especially as it can take some time for new partnerships to realise their true value. We actively share best practices and keep each other informed of changes in the competitive landscape.
