BMS’ Catherine Owen: Hybrid communication is here to stay
The company’s senior vice president for major markets (Europe, Canada and Japan) talks about the continued evolution of pharma’s approach to communications and commercialisation.
The core of Bristol Myers Squibb’s commercial business outside its home base of the US covers most of the large countries in Europe, as well as Canada and Japan. These 19 territories have about 4,500 employs between them and account for revenues of around $12,5 billion.
