The traditional methods of sales and marketing are failing due to the changing landscape of the life sciences industry. Data and Analytics (D&A) is revolutionizing the industry as analytics-based insights are replacing instinct-based decision-making. S&M is the biggest adopter of D&A within life sciences and uses it to design strategies for the function. The industry is moving from simple descriptive models that were used to analyze existing trends, to highly sophisticated predictive and prescriptive models, in order to define a future growth strategy.
To support enterprises in their journeys, service providers are ramping up capabilities through life sciences-specific partnerships and acquisitions. This, in turn, is driving the need for on demand research and market intelligence, as well as an understanding of supply trends in life sciences D&A for S&M services.
