Hi!
When you say "provide me will all the raw materials you can find",
does this mean that you only need the articles and that we don't need
to answer each of the questions you put forward? Does this mean that
the questions are only a framework for the articles?
Furthermore, it seems that the articles mainly looks at the
pharmaceutical industry per country. Would that be ok like giving as
an example the US Pharmaceutical Industry?
Thanks!

Hi
Yes i would like the questions i have put forward answered , not all
the articles. Just anything you may think relavent in understanding
the answers.
With regards to examing the pharmaceutical industry per country, i
would like it in two ways
1. The US PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTY &
2. UK PHARMACEUTICAL INDUSTRY
If you can give me a list of the top 6 GLOBAL PLAYERS in the industry
that would be great as well.
Thanks

Hi!
I haven't found anything substantial yet so I am opening this question
to other researchers so that they might be able to take a crack at it.
Thanks!

When you talk about subgroups, exactly what do you mean? The
pharmaceutical market can be grouped by company size and market power,
therapeutic areas, geographic areas, and business segments (ie.
generics, branded drugs, distributors), etc.
I think I can answer this question, but there are a number of
different ways to answer it. If you clarify what kind of subgroups you
require, I'll do my best.
Regardless of the way you want this question answered, however, I do
not think I will be able to find a "group map" already constructed,
simply because the industry analysts I read don't think that way. But
once I know the direction you wish to go, I should be able to map the
subgroups for you.

I just did some more research and found I was wrong about the
availability of a group map. I found a reference book containing such
a map. I can tell you where to buy it for less than $100, though I
think you could find it in the library of major universities, and
adapt your own version from a photocopy.
Would the book title and the answers to questions ii, iii, and iv satisfy you?
