Wilfred Mascarenhas, Executive Director of Eli Lilly and Company, joins fellow industry experts in hosting BioPhorum IT Digital and Data’s webinar on 10 December 15:00-16:30 GMT, where attendees will hear key highlights and recommendations from our publication ‘Managing data as a product for digital transformation in the pharmaceutical industry’.     You can register here: https://lnkd.in/e-gb5qKT     Wildred shares, “There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to figuring out how to enable and resource building of the data products. At Lilly, we’ve used a hybrid approach. The definition, ownership and governance of the data products is done by the various business functions and process owners (data mesh approach), while the build of the data products, GMP validation, etc. is done centrally by IT (data fabric approach).”      #pharma #dataproducts
