New Pharma AI Findings Reveal the Real Barrier to Scale: Execution, Not Innovation15.6.2026 12:00:00 CEST | Press release
GENEVA, SWITZERLAND AND WARSAW, POLAND / ACCESS Newswire / June 15, 2026 / Pharma companies are no longer struggling to identify AI opportunities - they are struggling to scale them. New findings from Lingaro, based on research with 150 senior pharma and life sciences leaders, show that AI has strong strategic visibility across the sector, yet most organizations lack the foundations needed to turn early momentum into consistent business impact. Nearly 60% of respondents say their AI strategy lacks clear ownership, highlighting a gap between leadership ambition and operational accountability. Without defined business ownership and success metrics, many companies remain stuck between experimentation and scaled delivery. Data is another barrier. According to the research, 67.3% of pharma leaders report fragmented or only partly reliable data. In a sector where commercial, medical, regulatory, and patient data often sit in disconnected systems, poor data quality can delay decisions, reduce
