Cambridge workforce safe for the foreseeable future

Published: 12:23 PM May 27, 2014    Updated: 6:21 PM December 14, 2020

As a former pharmaceutical sales rep I am delighted that Pfizer have withdrawn their takeover bid for Astra-Zeneca.

My experience in this field (including A-Z)) prompts me to say that their intention to move to Cambridge would not be best served by a merger with a foreign party.

It would now seem that A-Z’s Cambridge workforce will be relatively safe, at least for the foreseeable future.
