Is the Current Pharma Model Sustainable?

“This house believes the current pharma model is not sustainable and needs to change – time for a revolution?”

The world of pharma is changing rapidly. AI is changing how we do things. Regulations may lag behind. Drugs are increasingly being developed and/or manufactured in China. Startups struggle to get funding. Energy uses up, recyclable packaging is of necessity, and transport costs may all impact how we do things.

In this debate, you’ll hear from both sides of the argument, whether the industry needs a revolution. The speakers will highlight the economic pressures on health systems, sociodemographic change, antimicrobial resistance, misinformation; the need to change is too important to wait – is it better to do something than nothing?

They will also address how fast can we change the current model? Do we need to change it? Is slow and steady change what’s needed for a sustainable future?

Taming the Beast: Managing AI in Pharma

Taming the Beast: Managing AI in Pharma is a practical workshop designed to help pharmaceutical physicians harness generative and agentic AI responsibly within the highly regulated pharmaceutical environment. Participants will explore where AI can create measurable value, from evidence generation and publications to knowledge management, insights and operational efficiency. The course will address data and technology readiness, compliance, organisational culture and change management, with Medical teams positioned as key leaders of responsible adoption. Through interactive exercises and case-based discussion, participants will learn how to build cross-functional alliances with Legal, Regulatory, Works Councils and end users to deliver compliant, practical and sustainable AI transformation.


This session will be live-streamed for online delegates.

Bringing Children's Perspectives & Guardian Voices into Clinical Research

Meaningful paediatric clinical research depends on integrating the lived experiences of children and the insights of their guardians throughout study design and execution. Actively capturing patient and caregiver perspectives can improve protocol feasibility, reduce participation burden, strengthen recruitment and retention, and ensure outcomes reflect what matters most to families. In this session we will discuss how best to embed child-appropriate engagement strategies and guardian voices into research to foster more ethical, patient-centered development and ultimately support the generation of evidence that is both clinically relevant and impactful for paediatric care.
