In this episode, Xtalks’ senior editorial staff discuss how the pharmaceutical industry has changed – and stayed the same – in the last 2 decades. Sarah talks about the global value of the pharmaceutical industry in 2002 versus today and which companies made the top 3 based on revenue.
Sarah also shared the top-selling drugs in 2002, 2012 and 2022, and how much the industry as a whole has invested in R&D in those years. The team discusses the number of new drugs and biologics approved by the FDA each year, and debates whether the regulator will be able to keep up with growing submission numbers and the expectation of speedy approval decisions.
The team also talked about the role of Xtalks in knowledge dissemination and facilitating meaningful conversations in the pharma industry through webinars, written content, videos and, of course, this podcast!
