Welcome!

Greetings and welcome to the Lawrence Group’s newly launched blog dedicated to keeping life sciences/pharmaceutical industry executives, their advisors, the investment community, and the media up to date on newly developing industry ideas and trends before they break out into the mainstream. I intend to invite industry participants and interested parties to contribute and share their ideas and opinions with us while initiating discussion about these.
The life sciences/pharmaceutical industry is entering a new and unknown phase in its existence frought with peril, but, also, opportunities. In addition to writing about the industry, my contributors and I will also write about the impact of globalization and the changing US healthcare environment. The coming US Presidential election should provide excellent material for commentary.
My recent retirement from a large, global consulting services firm now gives me the luxury to explore topics in a way with people that I couldn’t while I was employed in industry and I’m hoping to bring some edgy and thought provoking commentary by thought leaders in the industry. The benefits of regularly reading this blog would be access to topics of relevant interest by other industry thought leaders, exposure to a large number of hits by other readers, and a ready made forum to easily publish their ideas.
I look forward to providing my friends and colleagues with a valuable source of industry comment and invite their comments and submissions as registered users.
Should anyone have any queries or wish to discuss any aspect of this blog with me I can reached via e-mail at larryrothman@consultant.com.
Thank you for visiting my blog and I look forward to hearing from you in the future!
