What it is: Pharm Exec publishes an annual list of the world’s top 50 companies. The website is partner to the print magazine Pharmceutical Executive. Together the publications produce analysis of business, strategy and government regulations geared toward industry professionals.
Why it Matters to You: Pharm Exec’s list is based on total annual sales volume, an analytic that captures size more than performance. Beside the annual sales number, Pharm Exec places the annual R&D (Research & Development) amount which indicates the resources that the company is putting into product improvement and new products.
Considerations: Pharm Exec’s ranking is a direct data pull from EvaluatePharms (www.evaluate.com), although it presents the information in a more accessible manner.
