Rising costs, ongoing supply disruptions, and growing pressure to improve margins are forcing life sciences companies to rethink how they manage commercial operations. With 86%* of pharma and life sciences executives increasing investments in supply chain technology and automation, the need for greater visibility, efficiency, and collaboration has never been more urgent.

Join us in New Brunswick, New Jersey, for a half-day seminar designed for pharmaceutical organizations and commercial supply chain leaders to explore how we can drive this transformation together—replacing fragmented processes with agile, data-driven networks. We’ll unpack the real-world use cases, interactive sessions, and a live demo, so you can gain practical strategies to boost ROI, streamline operations, and build a more resilient and connected supply chain.
