I came a day before, allowing me to have a nice dinner with Emma Darcy, sharing the event, some of the speakers, and the Fleming organisation.

Day 1

The morning session started with a panel that I was part of to set the scene and give different perspectives on the whole event. It was interesting to have Michael Hickey and Jordi Guitart, who both have a view on the HCP or other stakeholders such as pharmacists. On my side, I stressed that along with the journey I live with Richter trying to move the lines of the industry starting from our teams, I shared how important to be able not to lose sight of what is coming as new competitors. The field is changing, and new players come fast to understand how to navigate our regulated markets. I also shared that as a company, our whole strategy is to avoid being a pharma dinosaur and to truly take the boat that fits our size and motivation when the time is right. It is a different strategy than others, but we believe it is the best way to optimise, learn and grow with our practice and speed.
