The COVID pandemic has created short-term disruptions of critical supply chains, including those in the pharmaceutical sector. As we learn of the protracted nature of this pandemic, questions are raised of immediate actions that need to be taken to mitigate disruptions, as well as plans for possible medium- and long-term supply chain restructuring.
The session will look toward a collective discussion of critical breakdowns within the industry and strategies toward medium- and long-term restructuring. What changes have being made and are being considered? How is the sector addressing the changes in demand (e.g. higher demand for antivirals) and supply (e.g. possible shortages of critical components)? How will changes in the supply chain impact supply, innovation, and even profitability? What are the lessons to be learned?
