SURVEY DETAILS
TARGET POPULATION

For this Network Survey, GLG surveyed 90 pharma and biotech CDMO decision makers from US, Europe (UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain) and APAC (China, Australia, Singapore and Korea). This is the third iteration in this tracker series.

What will you learn from this survey?

  • Respondents evaluated key players including large molecule CDMOs such as Lonza, Catalent, Samsung Biologics, and Wuxi Biologics.
  • The respondents also commented on their current CDMO outsourcing including the proportion, type of products outsourced, distribution among geographies, and how this is expected to change in the future.
  • Lastly, the survey discussed the factors for selecting a CDMO provider, likelihood of various types of projects to be outsourced to major CDMOs, and performance of CDMOs on various criteria.

Examples of findings:

  • 37% and 35% of respondents agree that commercial production outsourcing will increase slightly in the next 1 to 3 and 3 to 5 years respectively.
  • 44% of experts expect CDMOs’ capacities to be balanced with demand for API/Drugs services.
  • Seven-in-ten (70%) respondents placed North America as the most expensive region. Also, 76% stated the main reason for changing CDMOs are quality issues.
