What will this webinar address?

2026 is a standout year of change. The spinning gears of geopolitics are in flux, highlighting China's rise as an innovator and exposing European competitiveness.

This has set the scene for a new act in which these powerful forces rewire the competitive edge in AI, R&D and manufacturing across the globe. Moreover, one of the world's largest drugs, semaglutide, loses exclusivity across populous markets, representing a third of all adults with obesity - and the world is watching to see how these markets adapt to introduce an affordable treatment with tremendous demand.

Join us for this webinar as we explore emerging trends in geopolitics, global health and commercial markets that will undoubtedly shape the year to come and give us a clearer sight of how the pharmaceutical landscape will take shape as we begin closing out this decade.

You can expect discussions on:

  • The geopolitical balance, US, EU, China and other top markets
  • How global health is reinventing itself with less funding
  • Technology platforms, AI and new private channels
  • A year of novel administration routes
  • Off-patent trends
