2035 Is Coming: A 10-Point Playbook for Pharma Controllers

The next decade’s closing in fast. By --2035, corporate control won’t just be about numbers—it’ll be about steering through tech disruption, regulatory heat, and a rewired industry.

Here’s a 10-point plan, grounded in trends breaking now, to get you there.

1️⃣ Master Data Today – AI-driven analytics will dominate decision-making by 2035. Build real-time systems now to track R&D spend, production costs, and pricing shifts. I’m guiding clients piloting predictive tools for trials and supply chains.
2️⃣ Prep for Regulatory Overdrive – Biotech’s rise brings instant transparency demands. Test AI for compliance monitoring and blockchain for audit trails. My clients are already proving this works in practice.
3️⃣ Turn Sustainability into Profit – ESG and climate policy will reshape cost structures, especially in Germany. Monitor carbon output and optimize energy use today—I’ve seen this cut expenses and strengthen brand equity.
4️⃣ Adapt to Patient Power – Digital health platforms will let patients influence demand. Think generics and crowdfunded therapies. Start modeling flexible pricing now to stay ahead of this disruption—I’m working with execs to do exactly that.
5️⃣ Rethink Workforce Costs – Automation and AI-augmented teams will redefine talent spend. Measure productivity gains versus training costs today. Future-ready firms I coach are already benchmarking this shift.
6️⃣ Leverage Virtual Tools – Digital twins and VR will play a major role in trials and training. Budget for these technologies now—clients testing virtual cost models today will save millions by 2035.
7️⃣ Value Bio-Assets – Genetic data and biotech IP will be tomorrow’s core assets. Start building valuation frameworks now. I’m helping companies secure and monetize these capabilities early.
8️⃣ Hedge Climate Risks – Supply chains will face increasing disruption. Build adaptive cost models using weather and climate analytics. I’ve seen these models protect margins under pressure.
9️⃣ Watch Decentralized Markets – Blockchain will enable new patient-led health markets. Keep an eye on early signals—I’m running future-state scenarios with leadership teams to stay agile.
🔟 Tie Ethics to Value – Fair pricing and equitable access will impact valuation. Use AI to monitor sentiment and adjust policies. I coach firms to make ethics measurable—this is future profit, not PR.

The clock is ticking. The industry in 2035 won’t forgive those who cling to short-term thinking. Build a controlling function that’s data-driven, compliance-ready, sustainable, and patient-focused—starting right now. Every decision you make should ladder up to that future.
