The complexity of emerging technologies in our industry creates a range of challenges. New therapies require specialized manufacturing technologies. Varying levels of risk present potential issues spanning the globe, such as the fact that regulatory approvals vary country by country in addition to distribution challenges in the ever-intricate supply chain.

Companies need to constantly evaluate how to do things better. Planning ahead is critical to enabling a continuous and secure supply chain that adapts to changes in regulations, technologies and market demand.
