“The US CMO market is the largest for pharmaceutical contract manufacturing, having generated approximately $10.7 billion in revenues in 2011. Expansion of the CMO market is being driven by…increased outsourcing of large pharma companies that are focusing on core competencies to improve profit margins.” (US CMO Market Report: A growth industry in transition by Jesse Sullivan & Jennifer Brice, Frost & Sullivan)

WTG (World Trade Group) is pleased to announce that Gordon Ewart, Senior Director, Head of Global Supplier Relationship Management at Shire, will be presenting an exclusive case study on the company’s outsourcing strategy at the Pharma Outsourcing & Procurement Summit 2013. In his presentation, Ewart will cover:
