Tech Trends 2022: A life sciences perspective  

Embrace and harness emerging life sciences technology trends

The past two years have brought about unprecedented change and unpredictability for the life sciences industry as the world collectively navigates to the “next normal.” While challenges abound, this time of change represents an opportunity for life sciences leaders to rethink the old ways of doing things and harness emerging technology trends and digital transformation to engineer a better future for their industry and businesses.

Our Life Sciences perspective on Deloitte’s 13th annual Tech Trends report examines new ways life sciences industry enterprises can automate, abstract, and outsource business processes to increasingly powerful technological tools. In taking this approach, life sciences leaders can arm their businesses with new superpowers to creatively tackle unpredictability and challenges before they emerge. For example, blockchain and other distributed ledger technologies (DLTs) will fundamentally transform the nature of doing business across organizational boundaries, while cloud-enabled data, ecosystems, and services could push R&D, commercial functions, and patient engagement to new heights.

Discover how forward-thinking life sciences organizations might harness these new trends and technological forces to spur transformation that can bring new solutions and breathe new life into the industry.
