PRESENTED BY
Why Attend the Pharma CX Oncology Summit?
PanAgora Pharma CX events are unique within the industry because attendance is limited to ensure each event is industry-led. Of the attendees, our goal is to maintain at least 65% attendance from pharmaceutical, medical device, and diagnostics companies (mainly comprised of senior-level marketing and customer experience executives within those organizations). This is done to create a peer-to-peer knowledge sharing and learning environment that prioritizes meaningful relationship building amongst like-minded pharma marketing and customer experience business leaders.
