Param Sharma

Pharmaceutical Consultant

Pharmaceutical industry is a heavily regulated industry which requires an integrated understanding from various fields like regulations, process / technology, project management, leadership behaviors etc. collectively to be able to successfully manage a pharmaceutical project. Good knowledge of subject matter is critical for a Project Manager in having full grasp and bringing realistic alignment between various competing project objectives like timelines, costs, quality, customer satisfaction etc. in managing stakeholder expectations and supporting needs of the project team. The signs of a successfully managed project are adherence to a realistic and approved project plan, a controlled and sustainable project execution and no / minimal surprises / risk events. Good project management is about problem prevention rather than problem solving.
There are various project management methodologies, with varying strengths in project management process flows / project life-cycle orientation, principles, methods, tools and technologies.The future of project management in pharmaceuticals depends a lot on how various relevant aspects like emerging technologies, regulations, various project management methodologies and leadership styles evolve in the coming years.
Eventually the most important driving force in various types of pharmaceutical projects is always to directly or indirectly support in creating high value and affordable medicine for the patients worldwide.

Sandra Migchielsen

Program Mamanager at CIV Bio Sciences

Human capital is a critical success factor for the Leiden Bio Science Park (LBSP) and the city of Leiden to grow and prosper. Over the past years investigations were done into the trends and developments in the life sciences & health industry related to supply and demand for jobs and education. The 'Centrum voor Innovatief Vakmanschap (CIV)' or Center for Innovative Craftsmanship Bio Sciences was created at the Leiden Bio Science Park in order to align the needs of the bio sciences industry and vocational education. In the CIV, 26 partners from industry, education and government collaborate on talent development and innovation. It thus builds on the collaborative 'human capital agenda LBSP' that was launched at the end of 2022.
This presentation will address the current and future trends and developments in the industry, especially at the LBSP, how these developments influence human capital and educational needs, and what the CIV Bio Sciences and its partners plan to do about this.

Gerdien Raap

Interim & Project Manager in Food & Life Science Industry

There is a lot of science behind pharmaceutical processes and Good Manufacturing Practice is about common sense. True, but I would like to tell you more about it.
You probably all know how to cook a decent and safe meal by yourself for your family or friends. Imagine – a bad dream maybe- your spaghetti bolognaise is a big hit and a group of volunteers enters your small kitchen to cook this great spaghetti bolognaise of yours for the whole neighbourhood, what was the recipe again?
You realise there are insufficient pots and pans so they need to be washed and dried in between batches. Your one kitchen towel is already soaked, so kitchen cabinets are randomly opened in search for a dry one. And where do you keep your salt and pepper? Your olive oil is expired and tastes funky but we already used it. And is this soy sauce gluten free? And oh, they also used your toilet, but did these guys even wash their hands?!
Good Manufacturing Practice is our licence to operate, it is indeed about common sense but also about attitude, discipline, planning, organisation, structure, control, communication, documentation and managing the quantities. In this serious presentation I will tell you more about this serious topic.

Wilma Meijs

Consultant & Director at WMFA

One of the steps of manufacturing of pharmaceutical products is the final certification and release of the Product by the QP. In this presentation Wilma will stipulate the different items that should be taken into account at batch certification. In 2 case studies the participants will be able to discuss such a certification process and aspects that could influence the batch disposition decision.

Ciara Mullane

Recruitment Specialist & Account Manager at DPS Group Global

New technologies influence how pharmaceutical companies hire new talent. What skillsets are recruiters and hiring managers looking for when trying to find the perfect candidate? This presentation will focus on how new technologies influence the types of roles that are in high demand in the pharmaceutical industry today and how we at DPS support our clients by hiring the best talent.

Mira Vasic

Co-owner and Sr Partner InTouch Female Leadership & Career Academy

During the workshop, participants will understand what barriers women in pharma usually face. The workshop opens with a hands-on exercise in which participants will experience how our unconsciously biased brain tends to think of specific gender when thinking of certain roles in business and life. During the workshop, we will mainly focus on aspects of gender bias, but also include a double intersection with cultural background. Participants will learn how the bias occurs in our brain and how it gets stronger during our lives with various stereotypes that surround us.
