Bringing You Key Information To Implement Your AI Strategy

The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the pharmaceutical industry is increasing at a rapid pace and will inevitably continue to spread as expertise and understanding also grow. Combining big data with machine learning, AI could have a dramatic impact on costly and lengthy drug development processes such as clinical trials, manufacturing, and personalised medicines. 

  • Where do you begin when trying to understand this new technology? 
  • What does a successful AI strategy look like?
  • How do you begin organising your data so you can draw meaningful conclusions?

This 2-day live online course has the answers to these key initial questions. Guided by an expert you will be provided with an understanding of the processes core to the adoption and integration of AI with examples from various sectors. Additional case studies with key industry stakeholders will also provide an insight into how AI is already being leveraged in the pharma and (bio)pharm industry.

During this live online course, you will gain a framework enabling you to make judgements about the potential benefits of AI for your organisation. You will learn how to begin formulating an AI strategy and think about how to position your organisation so you can access the technology and talent required to make it work.
