ExL Pharma's Effective Business Development for Clinical Trial Service Providers
July 14 - 15, 2009
- Washington DC UNITED STATES
ExL Pharma
The Business Development landscape for clinical trial service providers is changing. The rising cost of drug development, coupled with today's staggering economy has paralyzed biopharmaceutical R&D. In an effort to reduce operational expenses, biopharma companies are experimenting with different strategies that have a direct impact on your sales prospects. Clinical programs are being reprioritized, reduced or removed altogether until funding sources can be obtained. Big and small pharma are transforming their functional operations through multifaceted preferred outsourcing tactics, oftentimes reducing their flexibility to diversify external vendor pools. The process of finding leads, turning them into prospects and then closing the deal has become more challenging than ever. How you conducted business development as recently as 2-3 years ago may no longer bring you success. You attend a short list of large-scale conferences and tradeshows each year. Now is your chance to leave your post in the exhibit hall and actively participate in conference sessions designed to address your challenges as a professional responsible for gaining new clients and keeping their long-term business. Join us to learn and network in an intimate setting, away from the hustle and bustle of a typical tradeshow. We look forward to helping you arm yourself with proven, timely business development strategies on July 14th in Washington DC.
