The ISPE Foundation: Fueling Global Health Equity

This year, the ISPE Foundation made great strides in its mission of fueling global health equity by fostering access to knowledge and nurturing diverse talent.

The ISPE Foundation provides a pathway for the diverse and unique perspectives of all people to be heard within our industry through programs such as ISPE Foundation Diversity Internship Program, Technology without Borders, and Women in Pharma®.

This past International Women’s Day, the ISPE Foundation celebrated by spotlighting multiple members of Women in Pharma, including the Chair for the Women in Pharma International Steering Committee, Vivien Santillan, who said, “Programs with a focus on personal and professional growth with social impact at their core will shape the future of the pharmaceutical industry.”

The ISPE Foundation’s Technology without Borders program has achieved notable progress, particularly with the successful completion of its inaugural cycle in Brazil. Recently, the ISPE Foundation recognized the program’s achievements, which were made possible with a generous contribution from Gilead Sciences. The contribution helped expedite the availability of essential industry guidance documents and training in emerging economies. These resources are critical to regulatory bodies and industry professionals who would otherwise have limited or no access to the pharmaceutical industry’s best practices and standards. The program’s success in Brazil is evident, with over 125 Portuguese-speaking individuals benefiting from resources and training in their native language.

If you would like to strengthen your involvement with the ISPE Foundation, join them on 16 October for the Annual ISPE Foundation Golf Tournament at Celebration Golf Club in Orlando, Florida, following the 2024 ISPE Annual Meeting & Expo. Because proceeds from the event directly benefit the ISPE Foundation, this is an exceptional opportunity for your company to both demonstrate its philanthropic dedication and spend the day networking among industry leaders and professionals. If you are interested in playing or sponsoring the tournament, please contact Dave Dunham, Senior Director, Business Development for more details.
