Big Pharma is a term for the world’s largest publicly traded pharmaceutical companies. It’s one of the most powerful industries in the world, and in 2024 has a projected global revenue north of $1,100 billion. As Americans, it’s particularly prescient for us, given that the U.S. generates nearly half of that revenue alone. When it comes to the drugs themselves, oncology drugs are expected to be the largest market this year, with a projected volume of $194 billion. Is it possible to imagine a world where these companies are relentlessly focused on maximizing human health, and the profits follow from that mission? That’s what we want to find out. In this dialogue, medical experts & healthcare industry leaders will come together to discuss the most impactful (and surprising) pharmaceutical interventions available now and in the near future, and to discuss the path towards a more equitable and ethical industry vision.
