Tara Dougal, Head of Content at UBM commented: “Pharma has had an extremely strong 12-months across all parts of the industry and this has been backed-up at the Pharma Awards where the breadth and quality is larger than in any previous edition. With so much innovation in the industry, the judges this year have really had their work cut out selecting the finalists let alone winners. So I would like to congratulate all the finalists for their achievements in this prestigious awards programme, wish them look, and of course, thank our judges for their work – without which these awards would not be possible”
