International Strategy
Internationalize your Consumer Health and Pharma Business
The good old days of Pharma & Consumer Health businesses are irretrievably gone. To continue growing, the ability to quickly adjust to global market dynamics and needs is essential. In this fast-paced, challenging time, it is important to up the ante on international strategy to ensure that it can appropriately serve your company’s growth ambitions. Considering that Emerging Markets develop and grow much more quickly than mature markets, a shift in focus and investments to the growing international markets is something to be considered.
Shifting your focus from home market to international focus:
- Gain additional international sales with your existing products in additional countries
- Systematically identify your Products & Countries with best potential in Europe, Latin America, Asia, US/Canada, Middle East
- Be less depended on your home market and lower the risk
The systematic analysis will support you with:
- Transparent international Regulatory Strategy with time & cost for each market
- Provide a clear international Roadmap to Market entry
Leading international Pharma and Healthcare experts point out that to be successful in the long term, and to elevate your business to the next level, it cannot be confined to only a few countries. An international country portfolio is crucial to avoid dependence on a single market (home country), which can be very risky in the long-term. With a portfolio of 15-20 countries (7-10 countries to start with), a company can become more independent from any future crisis to come.
Our Chameleon Pharma Experts understand that the future is global and recommend ‘letting go’ by developing, harvesting, or maintaining strategy in place for mature or home markets and investing in growing international markets. In the future, and even now, international markets are where additional revenues will come from.
