An organisation's position in the lifecycle also creates different challenges. Start-up core biotechnology companies, for example, may require more comprehensive biotech solutions than mature companies who are progressing to the commercialisation stage of their development. Issues challenging these organisations at various stages of their development include:
- the need to expand market share
- patent protection in an IP-intensive environment
- compliance with country and global regulation
- strategic alliances and partnerships
- privacy and patient data
- risk management
- emerging trends and opportunities.
