In this workshop, Robin Arnold, vice president
of IMS Health's Product and Portfolio Strategy practice, will reveal insights
from the company's recent global study of pharmaceutical market growth
opportunities over the next decade. The study uncovers new insights about the
most promising areas for long-term investment and de-prioritization, the
potential of R&D pipelines, emerging therapy approaches and the impact of early
patient intervention on growth, along with raising important questions about how
pharmaceutical companies can better prepare for a more promising, but uncertain

After the Patent Cliff: Shared Risk For Shared Reward
The biopharma landscape of 2010 is dramatically different than one year ago but no less complex. Almost universally, the au courant phrase is shared risk for shared reward. The shift in mindset driving this thinking is subtle; to succeed, it implies if not an explicit partnership then an implicit compromise between parties such as small biotech and big pharma, and drug developer and payor. The ramifications of this shift, which will encompass every player in the biopharma drug development ecosystem, are already influencing dealmaking decisions.
At this year’s Pharmaceutical Strategic Alliances conference, we’ll gather some
of the industry’s newest faces to enlighten us all on the concept of risk-sharing
in its various facets:
Option-based deals, while not new, came into their own in 2009 and continue to
be a force in 2010. VCs may increasingly look to risk-sharing alliances or
options-to-acquire as a means to hedge the development costs of their portfolio
companies, building their start-ups for this eventuality. Pharmas, eager to shed
unnecessary infrastructure, will continue to push for alliances, or partial
ownership structures where appropriate. They must also determine the best way to
work with payors, especially in the US market.
Almost certainly the risk-sharing deals of tomorrow will be as varied as their developers, with an emphasis on bespoke arrangements that mirror the tailoring of medicines to individual patients. Join us this September at Pharmaceutical Strategic Alliances conference, where we’ll gather some of the industry’s newest faces to examine the concept of risk-sharing in its various facets.
