Description

Today Alex and Faisal are joined in the pod by Paul Simms, Chairman at eyeforpharma, to discuss how we can keep the world connected in a time of crisis and isolation. Before the global pandemic there was already concern that the culture of mass travel to world congress and meetings was unsustainable on many levels. It was also discussed that in a world of global collaboration and continual and open publication of scientific advances it could struggle for relevance. However the networking and connectivity that comes from people coming together to share ideas is crucial in medicine, healthcare and pharma. Paul has recently had to contend with taking two large pharmaceutical conferences online at short notice. We find out what he has learnt and possibly what pharma could learn from this experience.
