About MarketsandMarkets

MM has developed a center of excellence dedicated to address forecasting and analytics needs of pharma companies seeking to enter emerging markets. Forecasting pharma markets, molecules, and brands in emerging markets is significantly different from forecasting developed markets such as U.S., Europe, and Japan, in terms of healthcare systems, product affordability and consumer willingness to pay, the healthcare delivery, financing and reimbursement mechanism, and the role of physicians, pharmacists, patients, and the private sector. Thus, a detailed understanding of each element is required to develop customized forecasting solutions. MM's dedicated team of analysts offer in-depth understanding on epidemiology, patients base, analogues for forecasting analytics, and market dynamics specific to emerging markets.
