Through semi-structured interviews with five executives, six key themes emerged: diverse perceptions of RWE, its strategic importance in internal and external decision-making, challenges to its adoption, facilitators of its use, executive attitudes, and future trends. Findings indicate that, while RWE offers significant opportunities to enhance market access and address unmet medical needs, barriers such as data fragmentation, organisational resistance, and HTA variability must be overcome. The study underscores the necessity for leadership commitment and the integration of RWE into business models to unlock its full potential. These insights provide valuable guidance for pharmaceutical companies navigating the evolving landscape of healthcare in the APAC region.</p> Iain Kaan Katharina Busch Krishna Rajulu Copyright (c) 19 3
