Background

The site operates as the media arm of GlobalData Plc, which traces its corporate roots to TheMutual.net, a London-based information services company founded in 1999. Progressive Digital Media Group, formed in 2007 after acquiring media assets from Wilmington plc, conducted a reverse takeover of that entity and rebranded the combined company as GlobalData Plc in January 2016. Pharmaceutical-technology.com is one of several industry-focused media brands operating under the GlobalData umbrella, which also covers sectors such as energy, mining, and technology. The outlet draws on GlobalData's database of over one billion data points and a staff of more than 800 journalists, researchers, and analysts spanning 80-plus markets. In May 2011 it launched a companion free digital magazine, Pharma Technology Focus, distributed alongside its companion site drugdevelopment-technology.com. The publication covers topics including FDA regulatory shifts, drug manufacturing, supply chain issues, clinical development, and pharmaceutical pricing policy. It does not operate as an opinion publication; its editorial focus is squarely on business and regulatory developments affecting the global pharma industry. In March 2026, parent company GlobalData moved from the AIM growth market to the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange, reflecting its expanded scale as an intelligence platform.
