In light of the growing importance of Asia to the industry, Spencer Stuart’s Life Sciences Practice set out to explore the business and talent issues facing multinational companies as they expand their businesses in the diverse markets of Asia Pacific. Consultants spoke with the senior regional leaders of global pharmaceutical and medical technology companies in Australia, China, India and Japan, two of the region’s most mature markets and two of its fastest-growing markets. These leaders talked about the state of the industry within their countries, the strategies their companies are pursuing, the emerging talent requirements as well as companies’ approaches for finding and developing the leaders needed for the future. The article highlights the market landscape, competitive pressures, challenges and talent issues for life sciences organizations in each of these countries.
