Update for customers, suppliers, and governments
Industry learning and growth
As the world navigates the greatest public health crisis in recent memory, the biopharma industry has taken a leading role in fighting COVID-19. In collaboration with Longitude, a Financial Times company, Cytiva has developed the Global Biopharma Resilience Index. This index ranks biopharma capabilities and resilience in 20 countries, scoring each on five factors critical to meeting global demand during a public health crisis.
