Life sciences sector in India is implementing technologies like machine learning, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, robotics, blockchain augmented and virtual reality to accelerate drug discovery, enabling transparency and efficiency in supply chain, improve patient outcomes, and drive sustainable healthcare innovation.
National Technology Day: Empowering Innovation
As the National Technology Day is observed annually on May 11, this year's theme is 'Empowering Indian Youth for Global Leadership in Science & Innovation for Viksit Bharat'. The day according to lifesciences companies is a reminder of how innovation can drive systemic change, and this is nowhere more evident than in healthcare.
Technology as the Silent Designer
According to Hari Kiran Chereddi, managing director & CEO, HRV & NHG Pharma:
Technology today has become the silent designer of the pharma industry's shift from molecules to markets.
Transforming Every Aspect of Pharma
In research, machine learning and artificial intelligence are advancing molecule discovery, predicting trial success, and risk-reducing development pipelines. On the factory floor, digital twin-led intelligent factories and predictive analytics are optimizing yields, reducing downtime, and ensuring real-time compliance. And in business, technology is enabling hyper-personalized interaction, translating data into insights and insights into action, noted Chereddi.
A New Way of Thinking
Technology is not a tool, instead it is a way of thinking. A way of thinking that adds velocity, precision, and democratization to the essence of pharma so that the innovation reaches the patients faster, safer, and smarter than before.
