In the second video of this series, we dive into how the top trends and challenges are shaping the pharma and healthcare industry.
Gaetan Van Exem, Global Vertical Head of Pharma and Healthcare at A.P Moller-Maersk, breaks down the most important findings for pharma logistics, where quality and compliance are critical.
Top five trends for the pharma and healthcare industry:

Geopolitical disruptions are listed as the top challenge by decision makers in the sector (59%), followed by laws and regulations (49%).
