Networking

The right people – in the right place – at the right time

At The Biopharmaceutical Conference in Europe, we strive to make informal meetings become the basis of more formal business relationships. The program is designed to provide informative conference sessions, time for private meetings, as well as offering a program of optional networking excursions which allow discussions to take place in a more relaxed atmosphere.

In addition to optional social networking activities, we also offer you the opportunity to plan your time at the event. We do this in a number of ways:

Preview Attendee List

To facilitate meetings, three weeks prior to the conference taking place, all fully paid attendees will be emailed a current attendee list (giving each participant’s contact details, where authorised to do so).

When you register we will ask which of your contact details you authorise publication of, within this list.

Delegate Directory

A printed Delegate Directory, with contact information, is provided in your information pack which you will collect on arrival at the event. An on-line version will be available approximately three weeks prior to the conference and this will include photographs, biographies and company profiles of each attendee. Contact details (where permission has been given to share these with other delegates), will be sent under separate cover.

Delegate Meetings

The conference does not operate a formal meetings booking service, either prior to, or during the event. However the venue has been specifically chosen for its ability to offer secluded and private spaces for individuals to hold ad-hoc meetings. A meeting point sign will be in the conference reception to provide an initial point of contact.

The information provided prior to the conference will help you plan your event for maximum effect. It will allow you to make contact both before and during the conference. In addition, once on site we offer a photograph board so you can recognise those individuals with whom you are meeting, we also have a message board on which to post messages and make contact with other delegates.

Optional Social Networking

Each year we organise a few social activities, in addition to the main program, which allow for more informal networking. All these activities are optional and at the participant’s own expense. This year these excursions are:

Wednesday 13th June 2012 – (Afternoon) : Walking tour of Le Suquet – Cannes’ Old Town

Thursday 15th June 2012 – The Maeght Foundation and St Paul de Vence (Spouse / accompanying partners tour)

Friday 16th June 2012 – (Evening) Boules Tournament and dinner at the Palm Square, Cannes

“Always an outstanding event. High level of seniority; high quality of attendees and panel sessions, the right size, with limited numbers of attendees and a terrific location.”
