Executive Summary
Eli Lilly was the first to coin the term FIPNET, which brings the focus of becoming a fully integrated pharmaceutical network on partnerships rather than doing it all as a fully integrated pharmaceutical company, or FIPCO. Eli Lilly's Head of China R&D Tony Zhang sat down with PharmAsia News along the sidelines of the recent Shanghai R&D Summit to discuss Lilly's approach to R&D in China. Much of doing R&D in China is about building up a local ecosystem for innovation and, according to Zhang, it is about being a "sower and a grower," rather than just a "seeker and a picker."
