WOW! What a conference! The 2024 PMSA Annual Conference delivered on pharmaceutical industry advanced commercial analytics content and training, on industry professionals to network with and on the beauty and convenience of the location. From my experience attending this conference for the past ten years here is my personal 2024 PMSA Annual Conference Recap.

Commercial Analytics Content

The 2024 Conference fulfilled its title – Next Generation Analytics: Shaping the Future of Pharma. There were 32 informative sessions with 10 focused on artificial intelligence and machine learning. Next generation artificial intelligence always seemed to be part of the discussion.

However, advanced analytics is still and, in the near future, will be the bread and butter for this group of professionals. My main take-away was that data analytics, data science, commercial analytics, artificial intelligence and machine learning are constantly changing and impacting the work in new and different ways and to be a successful part of this cutting-edge research you need to keep up with the changing science and PMSA and their annual conference helps you do that.

Industry Networking

The PMSA Annual Conference is always a fabulous place to connect with commercial analytics pharmaceutical industry professionals. Every year of my ten years of attendance I have met new leaders in this progressive industry. This year the odds of making new and good connections was positively impacted by the over 400 professionals in attendance. The biggest names in pharmaceutical manufacturing and biotech were all represented, as well as suppliers, often with booths, to research new products and services.

Beautiful Location

I looked out the window of my beautiful hotel in the mile high city of Denver to see snow falling in the mountains. Many attendees were visiting this city for the first time and the city delivered in beauty and excitement. PMSA always delivers comfortable and convenient accommodations.

2025!

As a recruiting professional that supports this niche career area of commercial pharma, I am looking forward to the 2025 PMSA Annual Conference in Hollywood Florida on May 19, 20 and 21. In the meantime, consider joining the not-for-profit PMSA who’s mission is to efficiently meet society’s pharmaceutical needs through the use of management science.”
