substantial economic footprint. Companies pay salaries, support suppliers and pay taxes; they drive research and build manufacturing capacity; boost trade and contribute to the European economy. By investing in people and infrastructure, the industry can deliver medicines and vaccines that prevent or treat illness – allowing people to contribute to the economy. Europe’s pharmaceutical sector is about <strong><span class="mtm-color5">#MoreThanMedicines</span></strong>.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div > <div class="container"> <div class="row clearfix"> <div class="col-md-12 column"> <div > <span class="Subheading mtm-rte-heading-5"><br />Jobs & growth</span> <p><span>Medicines change and improve people’s lives. Jobs change lives too. Europe’s pharmaceutical sector directly employs 840,000 people,</span> of whom 125,000 work in research and development <span>– but this is not the whole picture. There is a significant multiplier effect which includes the people, companies and partners providing services to the industry whose jobs we rely on; from plumbers to academics, contract research organisations and SMEs, caterers to transport providers. </span></p> <p>The industry generates about three times more <span><a href="https://www.efpia.eu/media/412941/efpia-economic-societal-footprint-industry-technical-report-250619.pdf">employment indirectly</a></span> through the impact on the supply chain and the impact of employees spending their wages. It provides good jobs for a highly skilled workforce, invests heavily in training, and strives to achieve diversity and inclusion in our teams.

In the 21 years from 2000 to 2021 – in which time we’ve come through the Global Financial Crisis and a pandemic – EFPIA companies have more than doubled production, increased exports by a factor of six, and recorded a trade balance that puts it far ahead of other high-tech sectors in Europe. This resulted in a total of <a href="https://www.efpia.eu/media/637143/the-pharmaceutical-industry-in-figures-2022.pdf">€162 billion</a> in gross value added (a measure of how much a sector contributes to the economy) to the EU’s economy in 2016.</p> <p>Taken together, these numbers paint a picture of an industry vital to Europe’s economy.

This is reflected in the industry’s R&D intensity – the ratio of investment in R&D to net sales. In 2020, health industries ranked first across industrial sectors spending a greater percentage (12.4%) of their revenue on R&D than any other sector.<a name="_ftnref1" href="#_ftn1"><sup>[1]</sup></a>.<br /><br />The pharmaceutical industry supports the infrastructure required to generate new knowledge, test potential medicines and manufacture high quality products at scale.
