With a population of more than 140 million people,
Russia has one of fastest-growing pharmaceutical industries in the
world, increasing at a rate of more than 10% annually. According to
estimates, the value of the country's pharmaceutical market
will rise from $20.91 billion in 2016 to $38.56 billion by
2021.
Nonetheless, due to recent events such as Russia's expulsion
from the G8, countersanctions and so-called "soft"
sanctions, the drastic devaluation of the ruble, plummeting foreign
investment, widespread unemployment, and a staggering economic
recession, multinational innovators are concerned about their
long-term presence in Russia.
