I’ve been going to LogiPharma now for 10 years. It’s the people. Its the most comprehensive meeting where from a supply chain perspective, strategic sourcing, procurement, all the way through customer, all of the disciplines are addressed. With the event there are also break out sessions which means you can adapt your schedule to meet whatever your individual needs within the supply chain base which is what attracts me and makes me want to come back to the meetings...

For me it’s multidisciplinary. Supply Chain, I’ve been in it a long time. For me I always try to make sure its an integrated whole and that sometimes gets lost in more narrowly focused discussions and conferences. The idea of addressing the integrated supply chain aspects across the breadth from purchasing through production planning through distribution and also the way that we treat it as a process are key themes addressed at LogiPharma. Across the organization I think its also key that we raise the awareness of the importance of supply chain and LogiPharma helps facilitate this.

It’s not just cold chain. You could go to 30 conference a year that focus on cold chain. The wrong thing to focus on, it should be a pillar, but LogiPharma since I have been involved in the last 4-5 years looks at a wide mix of issues including S&OP which are not traditional core competencies but are important to the process.

I enjoy the fact that it is a big focused group on the pharma, bio pharma and med device group. It is a good size group with a mix of roundtables, break outs and plenary sessions. Good spread of big, medium and small companies. A well rounded mix of people with good expertise and has a good informal aspect to it as well.

For me what really grabbed my attention about LogiPharma this year is it is looking at the whole Supply Chain, not just logistics. Looking at end- to- end components. What our suppliers are doing, what R & D is doing, how mergers and acquisitions impact your business, how that flows into manufacturing and that could be anywhere in the world. What LogiPharma is doing is bringing in great speakers to entice people to be more involved strategically to make their organization work really, really well..
