How to Leverage Canada’s Competitiveness in the Global Market?

The Canadian pharmaceutical market comprises about 2.1% of the global market share, ranking 9th in the world in 2020 (IQVIA). In 2022, only 1 Canadian company ranked 33rd out of the 50 largest pharma companies in the world. Even so, the country has a vibrant biotech and life sciences research sector fueled by renowned universities, several thousand startups, and a history of scientific breakthroughs. Canada’s capabilities include:

The bio-health subsector of the Canadian bioeconomy is expected to require more than 36,000 workers by 2029, not accounting for the expansion growth as a result of Strategy investments. Already some employers are finding it challenging to recruit and retain skilled talent. Forecasts suggest that employers will only be able to fill about 25% of the biomanufacturing and processing job openings between now and 2029. To keep up, Canada will need to strategically recruit more internationally educated professionals and students along with under-represented groups. Raising awareness and inspiring pursuit of bio-economy careers earlier on in a student’s education may also help.
