Social Media in Pharma Summit starts today

Today is the first day of the Social Media in Pharma Summit.

Pharma IQ is proud to present Social Media in Pharma Summit, the first ever social media online event for the pharmaceutical community.

This interactive online event will bring together an international panel of thought leaders to discuss and debate the challenges and opportunities social media presents for the pharmaceutical industry – all of this in a convenient online format.

During the series of webinars, participants can see who is 'logged in' to the event and initiate a private chat to exchange ideas and contact details.
