Medical Meetings has partnered with Cutting Edge Information and the Center for Business Intelligence to conduct a study of pharmaceutical meetings industry trends. The results, including information on meeting spend, best practices, and meeting consolidation, will be released at the Fourth Annual Pharmaceutical Meeting Planners Forum.
Co-organized by Medical Meetings magazine and the Center for Business Intelligence, the conference is scheduled for March 17 to 19, 2008, at the Baltimore Convention Center. It's the first time the conference will be held in Baltimore, instead of Philadelphia.
In another first, the 2008 program will feature a summit for senior-level independent meeting professionals, in addition to the annual session for senior-level pharmaceutical planners. There are also two new tracks: Procurement and Global Meetings Management, and Regulatory Compliance for Pharmaceutical Meetings.
