In this special episode of Molecule to Market, you’ll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector through the perspective of pharma-side buyers and external manufacturing leaders.
Your host, Raman Sehgal, brings together insights from Daniel Hurni, Felipe Furiati, Frank Binder, and the buyer-side panel from CDMO Live Europe: When Outsourcing Goes Wrong, covering:
- What really goes into selecting a CDMO partner, and why price and technical capability are only part of the decision.
- Why product lifecycle, supply resilience, geography and risk all influence outsourcing strategy.
- What strong pharma-CDMO relationships look like in practice, including trust, transparency, governance and communication.
- Why being a genuine strategic partner requires much more than simply using the phrase.
- The early warning signs that an outsourcing relationship may be starting to fail, and why sponsors also need to take responsibility.
- What makes a CDMO stand out to experienced buyers, from consistency across sites to strong planning, risk management and operational capability.
- Why buyers increasingly want to understand the people and processes behind the equipment, not just the facility itself.
This special episode brings together buyer-side perspectives from across Big Pharma, mid-sized pharma and global external manufacturing to provide CDMOs with a clearer view of what their customers really value.
