The secondary market research challenge in Pharma - An inside view on how to overcome the perceived market monopoly
Data, Analytics and Consulting services are an integral part of a pharmaceutical company’s pre and post drug launch activities. These organizations spend anywhere between USD 30 million to USD 50 million on a single service provider while sourcing various secondary market research services. These services provide them with indispensable insights about patients, payers, prescribers, drug positioning and so much more.
However, the number of global service providers in the market has not grown in tandem with the increasing demand for quality pharmaceutical data, analytics and consulting. This, in turn, has resulted in not only the lack of choice of service providers at a global scale, but also single supplier dominance in the secondary market research space.
Watch Beroe’s Senior Research Analysts, Angad Singh as he shares insights on how to negate the stiff challenges that pharmaceutical organizations face in order to effectively source secondary pharmaceutical market research.

Conventionally, large titanium dioxide (TiO2) volume buyers fail to realize the difference between potential cost savings and their actual cost savings. Another prevalent scenario is faced when TiO2 buyers often hear suppliers state “Production costs, especially raw material costs for titanium dioxide have risen considerably and hence prices need to be revised upwards”.
Due to buyer’s lack of knowledge on detailed costing aspects, negotiation with TiO2 suppliers during procurement becomes increasingly difficult. Low negotiation power and inability to pass on increased costs to their customer results in heightened cost pressure and squeezed profit margins for the TiO2 buyers.
Watch Beroe’s Industrial Pigment expert, Vaishnavi Jayaraman to gain insights on costing and profitability aspects of TiO2. In this webinar Vaishnavi has focused on regional re-allocation of procurement practice, to solve the problem of bridging the existent gap between potential and actual savings.

Outsourcing production of mold/patterns and tools for manufacturing of MRO parts significantly contributes to the overall cost of production. This cost indirectly increases the price for the buyers of these parts. However, adoption of technologies like 3D Printing would help suppliers to reduce the production cost of molds, without compromising on quality of the end product. The end users / buyers can also backward integrate through in-house mold making and rapid prototyping using this technology.
At the end of the Slideshow, we have the Webinar video where Beroe’s MRO expert, Abhijeet Choudhari, discuss the potential benefits of adopting 3-D printing in complementing the existing manufacturing methods like Injection molding and its possible impact on MRO supply chain in the future.

Genome editing tools form the basis for personalized medicine, especially for therapies requiring change in genome. Currently there are four contenders to this – Meganucleases, ZNF Nucleases, TALENs and CRISPRs. Although, the technologies are many, there are very few commercial providers of this technology. This is attributed to the fact that select few possess the intellectual property rights of turning these technologies to valid form of therapy; for example, ZFN patent with Sangamo BioSciences and TALENs with Cellectis, Transposagen and Life Technologies.
The coconut tree has many versatile applications derived out of its various parts. Major end products derived from the coconut tree are coconut oil, desiccated coconut, coconut milk, and coir.

The economic downturn was viewed by the Chinese as an opportunity to expand investment and access to natural resources. As economic recovery continues to happen in developed nations, Western nations would also look to expand their natural resources. The thirst for resource acquisition could result in either co-operation or resentment among nations. However, this would play a major role in shaping up a relation between nations in the future.
Global pharmaceutical companies are modeled with a supply chain, which ensures that the right drug reaches the right people at the right time and in the right condition. The supply chain also ensures 100% product availability at optimum cost by carrying huge inventory, which maintains 100% fill rate. Manufacturers are trying to cut down development time to save costs. For example, a drug manufacturer who can trim development time by 19% can save up to USD 100 million. But if a drug is getting delayed to reach the market, the time delay costs the company around USD 1 million a day. So, pharmaceutical companies today are designing the supply chain to be as responsive as possible to reduce entry time to the market thereby increasing profit margins.
This presentation discusses the impact of Queensland floods on Global Commodity Markets.Queensland floods resulted in substantial damage to the Australian economy, which forced the government to make difficult decisions about rebuilding Queensland. Cyclone Tasha, a category 5 cyclone, was the most powerful to hit Australia in 100 years. Losses were reported to total USD 3.54 billion, of which the agriculture and mining industries faced losses of USD 2.03 billion. The tourism industry was reported to suffer USD 1 billion in losses as well. Queensland’s top export industries took months to recover from the impact of the floods.
This presentation discusses how Genetically Modified Soybean Seed Patent Expiry will encourage more farmers to use GM soy seed, reduce the total cost of soybean production and reduce GHG emissions as soybean will be preferred to corn and other feedstock for bioenergy production.
The primary reason for rationalizing stock keeping units (SKUs) in any business is the complications that arises from a burgeoning product portfolio. The quest for a long-lasting profit margin can induce a company to increase the number of products it offers, which results in a suboptimal product portfolio. This situation calls for a complete restructuring of the existing product line, which allows companies to identify irrelevant commodities. An increase in the complexity of the supply chain increases the overall cost per unit delivered.
This paper aims to study various strategies adopted by pharmaceutical companies to boost innovation. These strategies are usually overlapping and must not be viewed as watertight initiatives.
The penetration of the aforesaid strategies may differ with each pharma. However, on a superficial level it is safe to say that pharmas will largely look outside its own company for drug innovation and early development requirements. This trend will also be enhanced by the fact that most of the late stage drug candidates have already been licensed, and hence the focus will shift to an early stage. The success of these strategies will depend on how many potential drugs will be approved after clinical trials for commercialization.

A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
