Each year, Business Talent Group releases the High-End Independent Talent Report, looking across industries and business functions to analyze how business leaders deploy top independent talent to fill critical skill, expertise, and leadership gaps. Here are the key life science trends for 2023.
Following the rapid development of COVID-19 vaccines, the life science industry is in a transformative period fueled by advances in AI, personalized medicine, and connected wearable devices and digital platforms—as well as by regulatory change and the rise of value-based contracting. As long-time innovators in the use of on-demand talent, life science leaders rely on independents to help them stay competitive and keep up with a rapidly changing industry.
