EVENT – Medicines for Europe : 11th Pharmacovigilance Conference

The Medicines for Europe annual Pharmacovigilance Conference is a unique event where a broad range of stakeholders congregate to work together towards a common goal: to support access for EU citizens to safe medicines with an effective pharmacovigilance policy.
The 11th Pharmacovigilance Conference will once more see leading experts and regulators discussing the future direction of EU pharmacovigilance.
The opening session will review experience gained in the implementation of the legislation and will focus on current developments. The attendees will have an opportunity to learn about upcoming milestones and how to successfully prepare for them. The possible impact of Brexit – on the day-to-day work, processes and especially on responsibilities – will be discussed.
Compliance and inspections will be the centre of interest in our second session – how to keep up with recent developments and handle challenges, substantiated with case studies.
