Event Highlights

This year’s Innovation Summit will be our biggest and best event to date! Not only will we have a focused agenda around our IntegriChain suite of cloud-based informed applications, but we will also feature several sessions by industry experts on channel data trends in the pharmaceutical industry. There will also be a specific focus on customer case studies and joint presentations with several of our current customers. This year we will offer two educational tracks, each of which will include hands-on demos and round table discussions.
