InnoScot Health will be delivering a keynote speech as part of a new conference segment to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Scotland’s Life Sciences Awards.
The formal NHS Scotland partner's Head of Regulatory Affairs, Elaine Gemmell has been asked to present on one of the event’s key themes, ‘Regulatory Challenges faced by the Life Sciences industry’.
Billed as “the key event in the Scottish life sciences calendar”, the conference will take place on Thursday 13 March in the Cambridge Suite of the DoubleTree Hilton Glasgow Central with Elaine speaking from 3.15pm.
Organisers say that, thanks to the conference addition, this year’s anniversary gathering will be able to “dive into a series of insightful presentations and panel discussions, where industry leaders and experts will explore these critical topics in depth”.
Elaine said: “I’m delighted and grateful to have been given this opportunity to share regulatory insights within this exciting new conference format. Its addition is a fitting way to celebrate the Awards’ 25th anniversary as Scotland’s life sciences industry continues to thrive.
“I believe that ensuring regulatory know-how in ordercto effectively navigate often complex processes remains pivotal to that success and look forward to discussing further in March.”
Mark Cook, Chair of Life Science Scotland Industrial Leadership Group, said: “For 25 years, Scotland’s Life Sciences Awards Dinner has highlighted Scotland’s ever-expanding footprint in life sciences. This event continues to celebrate the continued economic growth, medical research, and innovative contributions of the life sciences industry.
“This year, with a conference, the event will provide a platform for discussing research and development, finance and investment, regulatory reform to streamline approval processes, and collaboration between public and private sectors. These factors are central to the economic growth and healthcare improvements both in Scotland and globally via exports.”
The conference will begin at midday with a networking lunch, offering an opportunity for attendees to connect. The black-tie annual awards and dinner will be held in the hotel ballroom afterwards.
