Breaking Through to Business Solutions for Personalized Medicine: A Thought-Provoking, Can’t-Miss Industry Event
Just as with patient treatments, one size does not fit all when it comes to companies involved in personalized medicine. Each is unique in its mission, culture, and capabilities, so it should come as no surprise that each demands a distinct business strategy that can evolve alongside the industry. The annual Business of Personalized Medicine Summit is centered around helping attendees build just that.
While other forums for discussing personalized medicine have, for the most part, focused on relatively specialized areas such as underlying technologies, financing, regulatory pathways, or payment issues, the Summit seamlessly integrates thought leadership and networking into a one-day, one-of-a-kind forum that addresses cross-sections of such issues with a clear eye toward helping attendees build successful, sustainable industry business models.
And because the Summit is a must for all entities who are currently engaged in personalized medicine as well as those seeking to enter the space, it provides the perfect opportunity to connect with key players in this rapidly developing field. Through fresh discussions with key opinion leaders and each other, attendees can collect insights and arrive at solutions that will drive their individual growth and performance within personalized medicine as well as impact the overall future of health care.
The 2015 Summit, co-hosted by Foley & Lardner LLP, the Personalized Medicine Coalition, AmerisourceBergen, and the California Life Sciences Association, will take place on Wednesday, October 7, at the South San Francisco Conference Center in South San Francisco, California, the birthplace of biotechnology.
