The BioPharma Business Services (BBS) Steering Group was an ad hoc committee established to drive the development of a BBS Strategy for Biopharma in Ireland. Meetings are a mixture of online and in-person workshops with work being carried out to map the current GBS landscape in Ireland, identify opportunities for growth, and plot an execution roadmap.
Four thematic subgroups worked offline to assess the GBS opportunities and capabilities for industry around the below themes:
- Discovery, Research & Pre-clinical, and Regulatory & Medical Affairs
- Development
- Manufacturing & Supply Chain
- Commercial (Sales & Marketing)
The Strategy was launched at the BioPharmaChem Impact25 Conference on 8th May at Kilashee House Hotel, Naas, Co. Kildare.
