  • Although trials have dropped by 24% since 2010, sector innovation is high, led by innovations in oncology drugs, neurological agents and gene therapy treatments.

  • Deal activity is up in 2015 to date, with increasing interest from European investors; however, three out of top five IPOs listed outside the EU.
