2013 Summit Attendee Accolades:

"I think it is especially important to encourage professionals and partners within the Pharmaceutical Meeting realm to come together like this for educational and networking purposes. We are strong voices within the industry that not only have a wealth of information to share, but also a great more to learn especially with the landscape changing as quickly as it is with regulations, guidelines, social media, etc. This conference allowed us to do just that. Keep up the great work and I hope to see it back again next year."
Hara Hawthorne, Manager, Meeting Planning – Eisai Inc.

"This new conference brought together a different element of speakers with interesting content in a very professional setting. Very worthwhile."
Judy Johnson, CMP, President, CEO - RX Worldwide Meetings, Inc.

* Please note, the main Summit programming kicks off on Tuesday, February 4. There will be afternoon workshops and a kick-off party on Monday night (February 3). Please keep this in mind when booking your travel.
