Comply. Educate. Innovate:
Life Science's Essential Forum for Speaker Program Excellence

Unite with compliance, marketing, and operations professionals to master regulatory requirements, build strategic HCP engagement practices, and drive operational standards behind world-class speaker programs.

20 Years Strong, and More Essential Than Ever

The Speaker Programs conference marks its 20th year as DOJ enforcement, AI governance, and digital-first HCP engagement move from future concerns to this year's agenda. Expect direct access to DOJ enforcement perspectives, leading compliance officers, and operations leaders, alongside tiered Master Class and 101/201 learning paths, live polling benchmarking on governance and FMV, and four strategic tracks spanning operations, marketing, compliance, and AI. A Cross-Functional Strategy Working Group builds on 2026's findings, giving returning attendees a continuing conversation and new attendees a clear path to leadership-ready strategy.

Twenty years in, this is the year to be in the room.

Master Your Role, Amplify Your Impact

  • Learn at your level: Master Classes for 5+ year veterans, 101/201 for those building the fundamentals, with both groups reuniting for a Day 2 Pulse Check to compare notes
  • Four strategic tracks, one urgent mission: operations, marketing, compliance, and AI, built around real 2027 pressure points like vendor accountability and defensible AI roadmaps
  • Network with purpose: working luncheons, dedicated breaks, and a Cross Functional Working Group that builds on 2026's findings
  • Solve what keeps you up at night: repeat attendance limits, PRC bottlenecks, venue selection pressure, and where digital KOLs fit in your strategy
  • Stay ahead of enforcement: direct insight into DOJ priorities and real speaker program settlement lessons, so you leave knowing the risk landscape, not just the playbook

From Learning to Leading

  • Get real-time insight: live polling benchmarking on governance models, FMV, speaker compensation, and program monitoring, with results you can act on before you leave the room
  • Go deep at your level: advanced veteran discussions on mature brand strategy and digital KOL engagement, paired with foundational training on speaker selection, program basics, and compliance fundamentals
  • Solve it together: a Cross Functional Strategy Working Group uniting operations, compliance, and marketing to standardize governance, align vendors, and build metrics that actually move the needle
  • Walk away with frameworks, not theory: FMV methodologies, speaker bureau optimization, attendee reconciliation, and topic limits that balance cost pressure with compliance expectations
  • Lead the alignment: strengthen the playbook connecting Medical Affairs, Commercial, and agency partners, and drive accountability across your entire speaker program ecosystem

Learn from the Best, Network with the Rest

  • Hear it straight from the source: DOJ enforcement perspectives, compliance officers from leading pharmaceutical companies, and operations leaders sharing what actually works in speaker program execution
  • Get ahead of the regulators: enforcement forecasting, real settlement lessons learned, and the compliance trends shaping speaker programs in 2027 and beyond
  • Benchmark against the field: KPI frameworks, performance metrics, and innovative formats like podcasts, modular learning, and problem-based learning that are redefining program quality
  • Connect with people solving your exact problem: role-specific working groups, roundtable discussions, and reception events built for genuine peer-to-peer exchange
  • Future-proof your strategy: digital-first HCP engagement, influencer considerations, and transparency reporting requirements that are reshaping audience expectations in real time

2025 Conference Attendee

I enjoyed the different tracks, although I wear many hats in my organization, so multiple tracks were interesting to me. I gained a lot of insight around benchmarking and polling. I really liked the interactive sessions and the small breakout group format.
