Conference Day One - Wednesday 10 March 2027

9:10 AM OPENING REMARKS AND ALIGNING OBJECTIVES THROUGH INTERACTIVE POLLING

Join us as we kick off day one of the conference with an interactive polling session. Using our event app, delegates can anonymously share their goals for the next two days and the challenges they hope to explore. The results will help shape conference discussions, set the tone for the sessions ahead, and allow us to incorporate topics not already outlined in the agenda. 

12:30 PM POLL YOUR PEERS: WHERE ARE YOU ON THE AI ADOPTION CURVE?

Take part in a fast-paced, interactive live poll to discover where you and your peers are on the AI adoption journey. Compare your organisation's progress against fellow delegates, uncover real-time insights into AI maturity across the room, and see how your experience stacks up against the wider industry. The results will provide a valuable benchmark and set the stage for the discussions ahead. 

3:30 PM POLL YOUR PEERS - SUPPLIER QUALIFICATION: BENCHMARK YOUR INTERNAL APPROVAL PROCESS

Step away from the presentations and take part in this interactive benchmarking session, designed to reveal how pharmaceutical companies qualify and approve their manufacturing partners. 

Through a series of live, anonymous polls, delegates will compare supplier qualification criteria, internal approval processes, and the factors that have the greatest influence on CDMO selection. From technical capabilities and quality systems to commercial considerations and procurement governance, discover how your organisation's approach compares with industry peers. 

This is a unique opportunity for pharmaceutical companies to benchmark their supplier selection processes and learn from one another, while giving CDMOs valuable insight into the sourcing criteria and approval processes that often take place behind closed doors. 

Following the polling, the results will be explored in a conference-wide discussion, where delegates can discuss how supplier qualification and selection are evolving across the industry. 

Check out the incredible speaker line-up to see who will be joining Philip.
