What effects will Brexit have in the healthcare sector?
When asked if the UK would be an attractive destination for research and manufacturing post-Brexit, the split was divided almost in half for US and UK respondents, but the majority of EU respondents said they did not see the UK as an appealing location.
Alexandra Annis, senior pharma analyst at GlobalData, said: 鈥淪ubstantial uncertainty exists around the UK鈥檚 position in the healthcare industry after Brexit. Will the UK remain a member of the EEA? Will the UK have access to EU funding? These questions leave the UK a high-risk market for healthcare companies to invest in research and manufacturing.鈥�
