World-wide trends in the pharmaceutical industry
today call for the global unification of both hardware and software.
Therefore, how to proceed with a long-term strategy based on a
global perspective is imperative not only for departments responsible
for the creation of new drugs which will be approved throughout
the world but also for departments responsible for production
and marketing. Nippon Zoki Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. was quick
to recognize the importance of adopting a global approach, actively
holding international meetings and participating in international
conferences in addition to forging tie-ups and collaborative relationships
with research institutes and pharmaceutical companies around the
globe.
