In the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, strategic
acquisitions and consolidation are often pointed to as the
prevailing trends. However, divestment of non-core business units
has become an important tool to drive strategic growth across all
industries, including in the life sciences sector.
Cameron Mingay was one of four experts invited
to discuss divesting for growth for a Q&A report published by
Mergermarket titled "Divesting for Growth: The Value of

Questions included:
- How effective are divestments as part

when considering divestment in today's business climate?
- What trends in divestment activity
have you seen in the market this year, and what do you think is
driving such activity?
- Do you see a correlation between the
pressure for digital transformation and divestment activity?
- Do you believe this increase in
strategic divestments will continue into 2017?
