Dublin, June 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Be In the Know With Pharma 4.0: Building The Business Case For Pharma 4.0" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
This course delves into the critical components of building and defending a compelling business case for Pharma 4.0 initiatives. This course is suitable for all levels (scientists, managers, and senior leadership). The course will focus on digital transformation within drug development and manufacturing, so may not be suitable for individuals working in drug discovery and/or in a clinical capacity.
As the pharmaceutical industry faces increasing pressure to innovate, streamline operations, and improve product quality, the adoption of Pharma 4.0 - the application of digital technology to pharmaceutical development and manufacturing workflows - has become a strategic imperative. However, the path to implementing digital transformation is fraught with challenges, including organisational inertia, competing priorities, and budgetary constraints. While the potential benefits of Pharma 4.0 are clear, successfully securing executive buy-in and the necessary resources to implement transformative technologies requires a robust, well-crafted business case that aligns with organisational goals and demonstrates measurable value.
Participants will gain a deep understanding of the industry trends driving digital transformation and the current landscape of digital solutions within drug development and manufacturing. Through interactive discussions and real-world case studies, participants will learn from organisations that have successfully navigated these challenges and secured approval for transformative projects.
Whether you are championing a new technology, advocating for process automation, or driving a broader digital strategy, this course will equip you with the tools and insights needed to articulate your vision, secure funding, and pave the way for Pharma 4.0 success.
