At the turn of the century, it was estimated that there was approximately 50 biotech and pharmaceutical companies in Ireland. More recent studies have shown that this number has jumped to almost 300.
At present, nine out of ten of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies are established in Ireland. Ireland benefits from a highly skilled, well educated English speaking population; and due to its EU membership has the ability to welcome workers from other member states. Consequently, it is unsurprising that biotech and pharmaceutical companies are one of the most active in recruitment.
The pharmaceutical industry is always evolving and, in particular, the ever increasing influence of IT in healthcare. Ireland is well placed to bring the two together with significant expertise in both sectors which provides the government and planners alike with an enormous opportunity to put the necessary infrastructure and ecosystem in place to support this integration.
Pharmaceutical companies are also looking at ways to reduce R&D costs and uncover new drugs quicker. As a result, Artificial intelligence (AI) and Data Science is having a far greater influence in the pharmaceutical industry.
