Innovation is a key driver of the pharmaceutical company, from an initial discovery of a
compound to the final development of a marketable and novel medicine, the web of processes
to reach a viable end stage requires innovative behaviour backed by accurate knowledge. This
paper analyses the use, importance and sources of knowledge within the drug development
process and suggests that a pharmaceutical Knowledge Management strategy should not only
address capturing the knowledge within the drug processes, but also the knowledge held
within the social networks of the organisation.
