Key Factors of Success<\/b><\/h4>\n

The impressive variety of biotech, medical devices, and pharma companies that make up an impressive network of innovation are the main factors in Swiss success. The outstanding infrastructure in place, combined with excellent academic institutions, makes Swiss pharmaceutical companies research-oriented and innovative. Switzerland has a high availability of highly qualified scientists, especially due to its proximity to globally leading universities. Moreover, the healthcare system in the country supports the introduction of new medicines, offering companies access to a streamlined test and sales market through an established framework. The well-funded investment industry provides the necessary capital.<\/span><\/p>\n

The pharmaceutical sector has become the largest industry in Switzerland. Traditional Swiss goods exports grew strongly during the years before the financial crisis. But only watch manufacturing and pharmaceutical production, and their exports have continued to rise since then. Pharmaceutical products as a share of traditional goods exports thus continued to increase and currently amount to about 36%, compared with 11% in 2000.<\/span><\/p>\n

With 89,886 million euros, it is the second-leading country in pharmaceutical exports after Germany. The sector\u00b4s trade balance reached 53,697 million euros, the highest sum among the reported countries.
