Our network includes individuals from Pharma, Life Sciences, Medical Devices, Health Tech, patient groups, research foundations, and academia.

Our community is run by local volunteer organisers who are leaders in their fields, supported by a small admin team ensuring smooth operations alongside our full-time commitments.
