Industry leaders’ views needed in the 2013 AusBiotech Industry Position Survey

AusBiotech invites industry leaders to participate in the annual CEO Industry Position Survey 2013.

AusBiotech invites industry leaders to participate in the annual CEO Industry Position Survey 2013, which is proudly supported by Grant Thornton. The survey, launched in January, is now in its final stage and will close shortly. The quality of the survey data is reliant on participation from key CEOs/MDs and AusBiotech urges biotech companies that have not already responded to join in.

While input on public policy is a year-round, ongoing and core part of AusBiotech’s work, it’s vital to formally seek opinions and information from the leaders of the industry we represent, to get a comprehensive view of the Australian biotechnology sector.

The survey is seeking views on the operating environment and asks questions that will help build evidence about the significance of the industry and its perspectives, and track trends.

The research intent is to be able to make strong statements about the magnitude of issues and trends and what would be likely to redress them - as well as providing a platform for operating and campaigning this year.

The de-identified results will be released in a comprehensive industry report, to be launched at AusBiotech briefings in April 2013.

The survey has been issued in hard copy and online to CEOs, MDs and senior managers of Australian biotech companies and global biotech companies with an Australian arm. Responses are requested by 4 March. Enquires about the survey may be directed to AusBiotech’s Communications Manager, Lorraine Chiroiu.
