Leading International Speakers

Why 9th Digital Pharma West Is the Number-One Provider of Content, Innovation and Practical Insights on the West Coast.

For 2018, we have spent a great deal of time conducting research and recruiting speakers from organizations of ALL sizes.

We've found that, regardless of their company size, life science marketers struggle with how to effectively, efficiently and compliantly deliver an optimal customer experience. However, certain challenges are universal. At Digital Pharma West, we will explore these themes, delve into relevant questions and provide solutions to help overcome obstacles in your everyday business.

Therefore we have developed a completely new agenda structure to reflect this:

2018 Overarching Themes to be Tackled

  • How will digital disruption transform the pharma business model? Unlike other industries, the “Uber” of the pharma industry has yet to emerge, and the market remains ripe for digital disruption. Pharma companies are exploring how to transform through new business models to better engage their customers, streamline their operations, and stay competitive.
  • How can pharma leverage digital and navigate digital trends and technologies to maximise positive outcomes for patients? Examining the adoption of digital across all industries is an important benchmarking process for pharma. Understanding how and why digital will impact healthcare and how patients can benefit is the key to developing successful and long-lasting engagement with your customer base. Therefore, identifying what a pharma company can do to address digital trends and emerging technologies is the first step in understanding what pharma companies will look like in the future and preparing for this transition of your business.
  • How can pharma generate value from digital medicine solutions? As pharma companies shift from implementing traditional products to connected solutions, companies are challenged to define and realise value from this new business model (e.g., revenue stream) that intelligent digital medicine solutions require.
  • How can pharma engage with disruptive technologies? AI, AR, and cognitive computing are now a reality and are being used by doctors and physicians in predictive diagnostics. If we start to advance toward diagnostics from AI on a regular basis and take certain decision-making processes out of the doctors’ hands, what are the implications for pharma marketing? How will brands and marketing teams adapt to this new world?
  • How can we demonstrate the value of digital for pharma products? Pharma companies are increasingly exploring the role that digital can play in demonstrating value through data, analytics, and real-world evidence.

Just a reminder to register early, as this event will sell out!
