This is why we launched a special purchasing managers’ conference for our member companies over 20 years ago to facilitate a continuous exchange of information and knowledge transfer between the companies. The event provides a platform for discussions on current topics, best practices and future developments in the pharmaceutical industry.
In addition, we regularly organize online conferences for the members of the purchasing cooperation to inform themselves about current topics and exchange experiences.
