ISPE Conferences
The 2024 ISPE Europe Annual Conference in Lisbon, Portugal, was amazing. As part of the Professional Development Grant Program, approximately 15 students and Emerging Leaders were sponsored by the ISPE Foundation. Travel, accommodations, conference fee, and membership dues (as needed) were covered for grant recipients. Students and recent graduates collaborated and networked during the Hackathon. They built lasting relationships and made connections that may lead to future opportunities.
The Professional Development Grant application process recently opened for the 2024 ISPE Annual Meeting & Expo. The conference will take place in Orlando, Florida. Visit ISPE Foundation and submit your application for the Professional Development Grant. Award recipients will be notified in the summer, starting in July.
As we approach the 2024 ISPE Biotechnology Conference in June, there are additional opportunities to gain or enhance skills. Workshops are offered that will highlight new technologies, innovative methods, and state-of-the-art facilities. ISPE members are performing work that will result in better outcomes for and extend the life of patients. As Emerging Leaders, you are an integral part of shaping the future of this industry.
Biologics, Cell and Gene Therapies, and ATMPs
Biologics, cell and gene therapies, and advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs) will continue to grow and expand to address the needs of patients. ISPE Communities of Practice (CoPs) host forums for industry professionals to discuss advancement, challenges, and lessons learned. These programs allow participants to gain knowledge that will enhance job performance, resulting in more visibility, and open the door to new experiences.
