World Drug Safety Summit

OUR CONFERENCE PROGRAM

This is not just another Drug Safety conference. This is a conference which tells you a STORY.

One personal experience followed by another, a storyline of exceptional people who happen to choose Drug Safety and Pharmacovigilance as their way to bring needed medicines and protect those who are the most vulnerable, and improve the health of millions of people on our planet.

You will hear experts talk about the current issues in this ever-evolving industry:

• The best practice case studies on how to integrate new, disruptive technology into the rather rigid processes of PV organization and how it evolves to stay compliant.

• But how to do this with the more and more restrictive budget?

• How to prioritize, what methodologies to use for advanced therapies?

• What is the next evolution step in signal detection noise clearance?

• Are AI-based tools to become our colleagues, helpmates, or our replacement?

Nonetheless, each company, department, and project starts with people.

• But how to build a winning cross-functional team and what kind of workforce is necessary for a drug safety department of the future?

• What kind of skills to expect from millennials and Gen-Z entering the industry?

• Why do we need veterans in the industry as well?

Challenges with:

• Innovations

• Outsourcing

• Everchanging regulatory landscape

• Harmonization

• Teaching other departments how to use RWE data
