It is closely linked to the achievement of another two - the transformation into an international brand and leadership in the production of generics. We have been moving towards the digital transformation since 2014. Together with the world leaders in the field of information technology, we have already implemented projects worth a total of UAH 88 million. This increased the efficiency of business processes and ensured the stability and adaptability of the company in the new reality.”

In line with this strategy, information technology is the driver of business growth. For my part, I am most interested in joining the large-scale changes in the company, which will be an impetus for the entire Ukrainian pharmaceutical industry,” Roman Borodin commented on his appointment.
