Top achievers from the pharmaceutical, biotech, and other allied industries were honoured at the 2019 Scrip Awards in London on 4 December.
At a dazzling ceremony in London’s Hilton Park Lane, television personality Fiona Bruce hosted around 500 senior industry leaders. They gathered to recognize the highest achievements of the companies, teams, and individuals who are improving healthcare worldwide through their singular contributions to the industry.
Alex Shimmings, Executive Editor of Scrip said “At a time of great change, it is important to step back and acknowledge the tremendous achievements of the people who work every day to grapple with the formidable challenge of improving people’s lives. The dedication of people in our industries has yielded breakthroughs that were once deemed impossible – the Scrip Awards celebrate your extraordinary accomplishments. Once again, the quality of the entries was outstanding and we’re looking forward to seeing this momentum continue in the year to come.”
Now in their 15th year, the Scrip Awards cover 16 categories, spanning the entire range of industry activities and the entire value chain. The Awards recognize accomplishments in all aspects of industry activity from new drug launches, to clinical trials, to innovative deals, outsourcing and fundraising, and also included a new category this year, MSD’s Innovation Award. Judged by an impartial panel of 16 senior-level industry experts from around the world, the Scrip Awards is a highlight of the season for senior industry leaders and innovators.
