Monitor Deloitte sponsors FT Global Pharma Conference
Today the FT Global Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Conference 2014 kicks off in the UK, an event that will be attended by many executives and managers from across the globe to gain insight in pharma and life sciences trends. The event is organised by the Financial Times in association with Deloitte, who in addition will contribute to the programme of the event.
As the world is becoming interconnected and technology-driven, boundaries between pharma, biotech, generics, devices and broader healthcare companies are blurring. More and more advanced technologies and materials are developed and will play a bigger role in life science research. As a result, it is essential for professionals in the Pharma and Life Sciences markets to keep up with this evolving industry.
