This book is written in the present. However, it traces back the history of pharmaceutical industry in Pakistan over the last half century. It is necessary to understand the context so that the current scenario becomes clear.
Pharmaceutical Industry is at a defining moment where it must review where it is, why it is here, and where to go from here. These decisions will determine the fate of local pharma industry in the short-term and long-term.
I have been working in the pharma industry since 1975; it is my 48th year of working. The industry has risen and grown in front of me, and I also contributed in my various capacities to the process of growth, expansion, diversification, achievements, and misadventures. Having said that, it is not a personal account of my career; it is a commentary on the rise of the local pharma industry, including an in-depth analysis of Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats, along with suggestion of strategies.
The book is a must read for all pharmaceutical professionals working anywhere.
