Demand for Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) and other pharmaceutical substances produced by the Basic Pharmaceutical Product Manufacturing industry depends on consumer demand for pharmaceutical products. Over the past few years, an ageing Irish population has bolstered demand for pharmaceutical products, as pharmaceutical treatments for degenerative illnesses have become more popular. Rising obesity levels and associated health conditions, like diabetes, have also lifted demand for pharmaceuticals. Industry revenue is anticipated to climb at a compound annual rate of 5.9% over the five years through 2024, including a forecast growth of 2.9% in 2024, to reach €16.7 billion. Over the two years through 2021, pharmaceutical product manufacturers' demand benefitted from the COVID-19 outbreak, as APIs were used in COVID-19 vaccine trials and antibody tests collected using blood sampling. Although revenue from COVID-19-related products is in sharp decline in 2024, the high diversification of the industry means industry revenue will continue to grow regardless. Low corporate tax rates have made the country an attractive location for global pharmaceutical manufacturers. Nine of the 10 largest pharmaceutical companies in the world have a presence in the country, making Ireland the world's third largest exporter of pharmaceuticals, according to the UN International Trade Statistics database. Most industry manufacturers are dependent on exports for revenue growth. The industry's global nature has created fierce domestic and export market competition. Low-cost manufacturers in developing countries are often able to outprice domestic producers, so ongoing innovation and product development have been key to ensuring consistent growth over recent years. The continued expanding and ageing Irish population, as well as more establishments being opened in Ireland, will be the driving forces behind industry expansion over the coming years. Industry revenue will rise at a compound annual rate of 6.4% over the five years through 2029, reaching €22.8 billion. Innovation and rapid product development will be crucial to success for new entrants and incumbents, including drugs for age-related illnesses, obesity and effective antibiotics to tackle growing resistance levels. More efficient manufacturing from the wider use of new technologies will also support profit growth.

The economic landscape of the United Kingdom has been significantly shaped by the intertwined issues of Brexit, COVID-19, and their interconnected impacts. Despite the country’s robust and diverse economy, the disruptions caused by Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic have created uncertainty and upheaval for both businesses and individuals. Recognizing the magnitude of these challenges, academic literature has directed its attention toward conducting immediate research in this crucial area. This study sets out to investigate key economic factors that have influenced various sectors of the UK economy and have broader economic implications within the context of Brexit and COVID-19. The factors under scrutiny include the unemployment rate, GDP index, earnings, and trade. To accomplish this, a range of data analysis tools and techniques were employed, including the Box-Jenkins method, neural network modeling, Google Trend analysis, and Twitter-sentiment analysis. The analysis encompassed different periods: pre-Brexit (2011-2016), Brexit (2016-2020), the COVID-19 period, and post-Brexit (2020-2021). The findings of the analysis offer intriguing insights spanning the past decade. For instance, the unemployment rate displayed a downward trend until 2020 but experienced a spike in 2021, persisting for a six-month period. Meanwhile, total earnings per week exhibited a gradual increase over time, and the GDP index demonstrated an upward trajectory until 2020 but declined during the COVID-19 period. Notably, trade experienced the most significant decline following both Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the impact of these events exhibited variations across the UK’s four regions and twelve industries. Wales and Northern Ireland emerged as the regions most affected by Brexit and COVID-19, with industries such as accommodation, construction, and wholesale trade particularly impacted in terms of earnings and employment levels. Conversely, industries such as finance, science, and health demonstrated an increased contribution to the UK’s total GDP in the post-Brexit period, indicating some positive outcomes. It is worth highlighting that the impact of these economic factors was more pronounced on men than on women. Among all the variables analyzed, trade suffered the most severe consequences in the UK. By early 2021, the macroeconomic situation in the country was characterized by a simple dynamic: economic demand rebounded at a faster pace than supply, leading to shortages, bottlenecks, and inflation. The findings of this research carry significant value for the UK government and businesses, empowering them to adapt and innovate based on forecasts to navigate the challenges posed by Brexit and COVID-19. By doing so, they can promote long-term economic growth and effectively address the disruptions caused by these interrelated issues.
