Workshop A

The New Era of Supply Chain Security

Finding the best means to maintain security of the global supply chain is the goal of industry and government alike. At this interactive workshop, participants engage our panelists on the expectations of regulatory authorities and concerns of industry. FDA and GS1 address the development of standards for identification, validation, authentication and tracking and tracing of prescription medicines. The session includes perspectives from small and large manufacturers on the implementation of electronic pedigree.

Workshop B

Anatomy of a Government Investigation

Regardless of whether your company has been the target of a government investigation or inquiry, no company in the pharmaceutical industry is immune to the potential of becoming a target. This interactive session will lead participating companies through different types of investigations and how to best prepare in advance. Participants will engage in a mock case study and learn from our expert panelists how to maneuver around potential pitfalls in the process of responding to any government investigation.
