Orchestrating Patient Outcomes: How Serialization and the Digital Network Platform Will Transform Specialty Pharma
Roddy Martin -
Chief Digital Strategist,
TraceLink
High-complexity specialty pharmaceuticals—from cell and gene therapies to biosimilars—are driving the need for flawlessly orchestrated end-to-end patient-driven supply chains.
