The Irish Pharmaceutical Healthcare Association and BioPharmaChem Ireland, representing the research-based and manufacturing biopharmaceutical industries respectively, have come together with the National Institute for BioProcessing Research and Training to host this multi-platform event.

With international policy leaders, renowned researchers and senior industry personnel, the event will highlight the ambition of the industry for the health and well-being of populations. It will also highlight where the research is pointing and how Ireland will support innovation in discovery, development, manufacturing and healthcare solutions.

In addition, for the first time, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Hacking Medicine programme will co-host a health hackathon in Ireland, in partnership with DCU Alpha. An intensive weekend of activity at the North Dublin Campus will seek to create innovative solutions to improve aspects of patient pathways and clinical care.

Events will take place in Dublin Castle, Trinity Biosciences Institute, University College Dublin and Dublin City University.

Tickets cost €700 plus VAT for the two-day conference.
