From Breakthrough to Blockbuster
Author: Donald L. Drakeman
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0195084004
Category : Biotechnology industries
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
"Beginning in the 1970s, several scientific breakthroughs promised to transform the creation of new medicines. As investors sought to capitalize on these Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, the biotech industry grew to thousands of small companies around the world. Each sought to emulate what the major pharmaceutical companies had been doing for a century or more, but without the advantages of scale, scope, experience, and massive resources. How could a large collection of small companies, most with fewer than 50 employees, compete in one of the world's most breathtakingly expensive and highly regulated industries? This book shows how biotech companies have met the challenge by creating nearly 40% more of the most important treatments for unmet medical needs. Moreover, they have done so with much lower overall costs. The book focuses on both the companies themselves and the broader biotech ecosystem that supports them. Its portrait of the crucial roles played by academic research, venture capital, contract research organizations, the capital markets, and pharmaceutical companies shows how a supportive environment enabled the entrepreneurial biotech industry to create novel medicines with unprecedented efficiency. In doing so, it also offers insights for any industry seeking to innovate in uncertain and ambiguous conditions. Looking to the future, it concludes that biomedical research will continue to be most effective in the hands of a large group of small companies as long as national healthcare policies allow the rest of the ecosystem to continue to thrive"--

Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9783718655717
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 344
Book Description
Supplies basic knowledge of biotechnology; how products are chosen, manufactured and marketed as well as how new avenues for development are identified and managed. The authors discuss in simple, non-technical language the most relevant aspects of biology and chemistry, and go on to survey significant developments in biotechnology in recent years together with those likely to bear fruit in the years to come. Combined with technology, chapters on management, manufacturing, patents, regulation and public attitudes complete the picture.

Biotechnology - The Science and the Business
Author: Derek G. Springham
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1000159663
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 694
Book Description
Biotechnology has not stood still since 1991 when the first edition of Biotechnology - The Science and the Business was published. It was the first book to treat the science and business of technology as an integrated subject and was well received by both students and business professionals. All chapters in this second edition have been updated and revised and some new chapters have been introduced, including one on the use of molecular genetic techniques in forensic science. Experts in the field discuss a range of biotechnologies, including pesticides, the flavor and fragrance industry, oil production, fermentation and protein engineering. On the business side, subjects include managing, financing, and regulation of biotechnology. Some knowledge of the science behind the technologies is assumed, as well as a layperson's view of buying and selling. As with the first edition, it is expected that this book will be of interest to biotechnology undergraduates, postgraduates and those working in the industry, along with students of business, economics, intellectual property law and communications.
