With the launch of the second Trump administration, government-level support is needed to secure competitiveness, according to the prospect of strengthening the global pharmaceutical bio supply chain reorganization.

In the 27th Policy Report (KPBMA Brief) published by the Korea Pharmaceutical Bio Association on the 19th under the theme of 「Global Success Strategies of Korean Pharmaceutical Bio Companies」, Lee Hyo-young, an associate professor of the National Diplomatic Institute, made a comprehensive diagnosis on the impact of external variables such as the 2nd Trump administration on the global pharmaceutical bio industry landscape through suggestions titled 「Changes in the global pharmaceutical bio landscape and the response of Korean pharmaceutical bio companies」.

The United States has been making efforts to reduce its dependence on foreign drugs, including proposing the 「BioSecure Act」. In particular, with the launch of the second Trump administration, the policy to strengthen checks on China is expected to be further strengthened in the future, which could serve as an opportunity for Korean pharmaceutical bio companies that are competing with China. According to the explanation, Europe is continuing to ease related regulations and promote investment by announcing the 「European Pharmaceutical Industry Strategy" in 2020, forming the 「Core Drug Union" along with the announcement of a mid- to long-term strategy to stabilize the supply of drugs in 2023. Japan also establishes 'Bio Strategy 2019/2020', 'Vaccine Development, Production System Enhancement Strategy', 'Bioeconomic Strategy', and 'Bioeconomic Strategy Action Plan' to realize a state-of-the-art bioeconomic society by 2030.




Professor Lee added, "We need to re-examine our supply chain of pharmaceutical biopharmaceuticals and solidify the international cooperation system in related fields in preparation for further intensifying competition in the global pharmaceutical biopharmaceuticals sector in the future.", he explained. In addition, the government needs support to actively develop high value-added products through R&D and technological innovation in biopharmaceutical fields in the mid to long term""Active support for industrial development and active technological innovation efforts by companies should be made to maintain an edge and strengthen their influence in the field of biopharmaceuticals with export competitiveness "
