A ready meal is a type of convenience food that consists of a pre-packaged meal that needs little preparation. In 2009 the global market for ready meals was worth $71.6bn, with a projected CAGR of 3.9% to 2013. In the Western Europe and the US the ready meals markets are fairly mature and well-established with moderate growth rates. However, growth in the industry will primarily come from the key emerging markets such as China and Russia. Ready meals that provide health and indulgence benefits continue to provide a number of growth opportunities for manufacturers in developed markets. Ethical concerns relating to sustainable packaging and local sourcing of food are also having an impact on new product development (NPD) in ready meals.

Japan, the second single largest drug market in the world (historically known to be a land of innovation) is a leading nation in terms of scientific research, technology, machinery and medical research. Japan has been an industrially active nation ever since it adopted Western technology and gained industrial supremacy in the early years of the 20th century. In 2008, the services sector (72.1%) contributed the major portion of GDP growth in Japan followed by industries (26.4%) and agriculture (1.5%).

The advent of DNA sequencing technology has had a vast impact on the field of drug development. It has played a key role in the success of the Human Genome Project which has made it an essential tool for genetic analysis. Advanced technological developments in microarrays, bioinformatics and similar tools have increased the scope of applications and services.

Turkey, a ‘pharmerging’ market, has evolved to this status after a series of economic and healthcare reforms. The country was at the verge of financial collapse until 2001 with inflation running in near three digits. However, the economic reforms implemented by the country have turned it into a dynamic economy. The country’s pharmaceutical industry has been a frontrunner in these reforms. Turkey has a growing pharmaceutical sector with around 300 pharmaceutical companies selling up to 1.3bn units of products every year. Factors that have fuelled the growth of the pharmaceutical industry in the country include economic growth, high healthcare expenditures, a young workforce and a host of companies delivering drugs to the populace.

Diagnostic practice is undergoing a quiet revolution, with IVD tests moving out of the centralized hospital laboratory to point of care testing (POCT) locations. POC tests are more expensive than lab-based tests, but promise to reduce the overall cost of healthcare while improving the quality of outcomes. They are thus attractive to manufacturers and increasingly in demand by physicians, patients, and healthcare providers.

The last decade has seen a rapid growth in the generation of electric power from renewable sources. This growth has been the result of several stimuli but the most potent has been global warming and a consequent move to reduce emissions of CO2 into the atmosphere. While international agreement on action to combat global warming remains elusive, many countries and regions are pursuing their own renewable policies with the result that all types of renewable generating technology have benefited.

Energy efficiency has yet to see a period in history more open to its products than now, thanks to a convergence of events: rising energy prices, concerns about climate change, and a desire to reduce use of petroleum products and promote clean energy. Several nations have set double digit goals to reduce their energy use and are backing plans with sizable government investment.

In the early 2000s, telecom industry experts widely expected VoIP to change the dynamics of the voice communications business. But a decade later, the largest providers of consumer Internet voice services are, with one exception, conventional telecommunications companies. Some are pioneers and innovators, some are not.

Due to rising affluence and increasing levels of health consciousness, growth in alcohol consumption has slowed in Western markets in recent years, while the sales of brands perceived as ‘premium quality’ have risen. Meanwhile in the developing world, wealthier consumers are following the same trends, whilst lower-income consumers are increasing their consumption of beer and other branded alcoholic drinks as they are increasingly able to afford them. Consumption occasions have has also changed. In markets that traditionally have a strong on-trade focus such as the UK, people are drinking more at home than in bars, restaurants and clubs – a trend that was established by the time of the 2007-2010 global financial crisis, but that was also exacerbated by its impact on incomes.

Therapeutic vaccines promise a new wave of highly potent and highly specific therapeutic agents designed to work in harmony with patients’ own immune systems. Recent advances in the understanding of the human immune system and in technical capabilities have allowed vaccines to move beyond pre-emptive (prophylactic) immunization and into treatment of established diseases. In April 2010, Dendreon’s Provenge became the first ever cancer vaccine to be approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), overcoming skepticism in the investment community and paving the way for a new generation of biological therapies.

Australia is the most attractive market for pharmaceutical investment in the Asia Pacific region which is primarily due to its growing and ageing population, excellent access to medicines, and fast-recovering economy.

Injectable bio-implants provide rapid non-surgical treatments and offer effective replacement, restoration, or modulation of function to lost, damaged, or dysregulated physiology. Market opportunities for injectable bio-implants are high in an increasingly aging population that demands fast, effective, and safe treatments for age-related conditions. Both medical and aesthetic applications for biomaterials make the market opportunities for injectable bio-implants highly attractive for drug and device manufacturers. However, biocompatibility is crucial for any implantable biomaterial to integrate into the host anatomy and prevent an immunogenic response.

The reduction of global carbon emissions is now widely regarded as paramount if the world is to avoid major negative consequences throughout the course of the next century. Current levels of c. 380 parts per million (ppm), represent both a record high and an unprecedentedly rapid rise (by 30 ppm in just 17 years). To avoid adverse consequences – and possible catastrophe – experts believe that urgent action must be taken now to limit peak CO2 to 450 ppm.

Over the last 30 years more and more scientists and economists have come to understand that the world is a complex dynamic system rather than a linear Newtonian one.

Infectious disease is not merely a problem of the past; despite significant breakthroughs achieved during the last century in the development of antibiotic, antiviral, and antiparasitic drugs and vaccines, the eradication or even control of many infectious diseases has not been accomplished. Of particular current concern are the problems of rapidly developing drug resistance, emerging disease, re-emerging disease, the threat of bioterrorism, and the speed of reaction to the appearance of virulent strains posing pandemic threats. Furthermore, the effective treatment of infectious diseases is dependent on accurate and rapid diagnosis, and this in itself can present significant challenges, especially in cases where the disease progression is poorly understood or has long asymptomatic latency (such as prion diseases).
