Pharma is winning the big business popularity contest - The Verge

But then, the pandemic hit, and the country's recovery depended on the success of vaccines. Government scrutiny of tech companies — from both sides of the aisle — picked up steam. And the two industries seem to have swapped places in the nationwide popularity contest.

Some attendees placed their smartphones on top of the conference room table, while others might have set up their laptops and began typing away. As the meeting progressed, phones might have been buzzing with attendees doing the occasional glance to see what notification they were receiving.
