This study looks at all companies registered in the United Kingdom where they identify themselves as manufacturers of basic pharmaceutical products or preparations.
This study includes companies that are dormant or non-trading some of which might be latent while others may operate under their owners' names but incorporate to protect the business name. In addition, all newly incorporated companies are included. The study will exclude those companies that do not specifically identify themselves as manufacturers of basic pharmaceutical products or preparations.
The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the key movers and shakers in the UK manufacture of pharmaceuticals sector. Only key data has been isolated, particularly the company's net worth and total assets, but also its full name, date incorporated, registered office, other activities, shareholders, directors (with date of birth, occupation and nationality) and number of employees.
Two indicators of size are used: net worth and total assets. These are preferable to turnover which is influenced by profit margins and whether the companies are capital or labour intensive.
In the years 2016, 2017 and 2018, new company incorporations in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals sector were 128, 161 and 254 respectively.
Pharmaceuticals was the only sector to show reduced sales between 2016 and 2017, decreasing by just under 1.4 billion (11%) to 11.4 billion.
Price inflation in this sector for the years 2010 to 2018 was 100.0, 100.9, 102.3, 103.4, 104.1, 103.7, 106.7, 108.3 and 112.4 respectively.
The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) is the UK trade body that represents the research-based bio-pharmaceutical industry in the UK and their members supply 80% of all branded medicines used by the NHS.
Estimated total NHS spending on medicines in England grew from 13 billion in 2010-2011 to 17.4 billion in 2016-2017, an average growth of around 5 per cent a year. Hospitals account for nearly half of total NHS spending on medicines.
The sector is a mixture of large UK-headquartered companies such as AstraZeneca and GSK, manufacturing and research sites for other global companies, and a significant proportion of SMEs and micro businesses, researching and manufacturing branded, generic and over-the-counter medicines.
The pharmaceutical sector is one of the UK's most productive industries, generating 41.8 billion turnover and contributing around one per cent of the UK's output and 7.7% of manufacturing GVA. The sector employs 62,600 people across 543 companies, supported by 1,314 service and supply companies comprising a further 51,000 people.
In 2016, the UK exported 24.9 billion of pharmaceutical products, of which 11.9 billion (48%) went to the EU. At the same time, the UK imported 24.8 billion of pharmaceutical products, of which 18.2 billion (73%) were from the EU, giving a trade deficit of 6.3 billion.

Описание: The New York Times bestselling book coauthored by the Nobel Prize winner who discovered telomerase and telomeres' role in the aging process and the health psychologist who has done original research into how specific lifestyle and psychological habits can protect telomeres, slowing disease and improving life. Have you wondered why some sixty-year-olds look and feel like forty-year-olds and why some forty-year-olds look and feel like sixty-year-olds? While many factors contribute to aging and illness, Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn discovered a biological indicator called telomerase, the enzyme that replenishes telomeres, which protect our genetic heritage. Dr. Blackburn and Dr. Elissa Epel's research shows that the length and health of one's telomeres are a biological underpinning of the long-hypothesized mind-body connection. They and other scientists have found that changes we can make to our daily habits can protect our telomeres and increase our health spans (the number of years we remain healthy, active, and disease-free). The Telemere Effect reveals how Blackburn and Epel's findings, together with research from colleagues around the world, cumulatively show that sleep quality, exercise, aspects of diet, and even certain chemicals profoundly affect our telomeres, and that chronic stress, negative thoughts, strained relationships, and even the wrong neighborhoods can eat away at them. Drawing from this scientific body of knowledge, they share lists of foods and suggest amounts and types of exercise that are healthy for our telomeres, mind tricks you can use to protect yourself from stress, and information about how to protect your children against developing shorter telomeres, from pregnancy through adolescence. And they describe how we can improve our health spans at the community level, with neighborhoods characterized by trust, green spaces, and safe streets. The Telemere Effect will make you reassess how you live your life on a day-to-day basis. It is the first book to explain how we age at a cellular level and how we can make simple changes to keep our chromosomes and cells healthy, allowing us to stay disease-free longer and live more vital and meaningful lives.
This study looks at all companies registered in the West Midlands and where their total assets are more than 6,000,000.
The West Midlands is a large region with a population of 6 million in 2016, 9% of the UK population.
The region comprises the counties of Staffordshire, Worcestershire and Warwickshire. The main cities are Birmingham, Coventry and Wolverhampton.
The aim of this study is to provide an overview of the key movers and shakers in the West Midlands corporate sector. Only key data has been isolated, particularly the company's net worth and total assets, but also their full name, date incorporated, registered office, activities, shareholders, directors (with date of birth, occupation and nationality) and number of employees.
Two indicators of size are used: net worth and total assets. These are preferable to turnover which is influenced by profit margins and whether the companies are capital or labour intensive.
A short summary of the corporate sector in West Midlands:
The region is home to nationally significant manufacturing clusters, including advanced manufacturing in the Black Country and Derbyshire, the automotive cluster around Coventry and Warwickshire, the ceramics industry in Stoke and Staffordshire and an aerospace and transport manufacturing cluster centred around Derby.
With Coventry as the City of Culture in 2021, there will be an economic boost to the city and wider region in the run up to 2021, and then a likely boost in the year itself.
Employment in the region has seen a resurgence, with 110,000 more jobs recorded in 2017 compared to 2016, the largest absolute increase of any UK region.
The region is the fastest growing region in the UK for goods exports - 27% (2015-17). Total GVA in the region increased to 92 billion in 2016 (4% growth compared to 3.7% nationally).
Nearly 300 finance, professional and business services companies are headquartered in Birmingham.
In the region 9.6% of businesses have a turnover of over 1m while there ard 42.6% with a turnover of less than 100k.
The region's business base is growing and there are currently 159,355 active companies (390 per 10,000 population compared to 432 for UK). There were 27,550 new businesses started across the region in 2016 - double the UK growth rate.

Everyone has had experiences that left them wishing they had trusted their instincts more. Perhaps they could have avoided a bad consequence, simply by speaking up at the right time.
Trust Your Instincts is a work of love created by Brenda and Natalie Blackburn, a mother-daughter team. This series of books is a way to open conversations with small children, to teach them to speak up for themselves when that small voice inside their head says 'something just doesn't feel right'.
It is a proactive way to empower children, to tell them that it is always okay to talk about how they feel. It encourages thought, questions and answers, without fear. It helps parents assure their children that they are safe, loved, and that they (and other caring grownups) are always willing to listen and help.
Author Brenda McCook-Blackburn began as an educator teaching Kindergarten. Later, as research analyst and Professor of Sociology at a California State University, her research showed that the major threat to children's safety comes from people they know.
This was driven home one afternoon during one of Brenda's sociology lectures on Marriage and Family. She revealed staggering statistics showing the rise of abuse. Some students cried when they heard that nearly 50% of children experience some sort of abuse in their lifetime. They realized that, if not to them, abuse may have happened to the person next to them. The floodgates opened and their stories poured out. Years later, some of these very students became proponents for children's rights and safety.
One young military vet remained after class to express his thanks. His stepfather, he said, sexually abused him when he was small. He had carried this shame his entire life. That first step in sharing helped lift his darkness. He's now a father with three beautiful children and helped come up with the idea of a children's series on trusting your inner voice.
With Trust Your Instincts Brenda hopes to drive away this harmful secrecy.
Natalie Blackburn works with groups to protect women and children, as well as with lawmakers and the FBI. She also provides women with guidance on how to protect their children. Many women feel they have no one to go to for help, for themselves or their children. This is why abuse continues and is growing. We must help our children feel secure and loved, and tell them their voices matter. That little voice in their heads is saying, "Be brave. Speak up. Someone who cares will listen and believe you."
Illustrator Kim Wilson Brandt was able to capture the youthful fun in being a child with illustrations that capture joy, sadness, and family warmth at the same time. Our heroine, Candy Cricket, faces situations that get children to think about what Candy needs to do to help. It is easier for children to think through these problems when they are talking about Candy and her family: Real life situations, but in a world of bugs; perfect for young children.
All profits from these books will be donated to groups and individuals fighting to create and enforce laws to protect the safety and innocence of children. See our site at http: //www.outskirtspress.com/trustyourinstincts.
