Cultivating Conversations: Patients as True Partners for Progress

THIS IS THE SIGN UP PAGE FOR NON-MEMBERS TO JOIN US IN-PERSON FOR THE LONDON SESSION

The London session will be at the Unicorn Theatre, London, SE1 on Wednesday 8th July between 12-5pm, followed by drinks and networking from 5-7pm.

The London conference theme is 'Cultivating Conversations: Patients as True Partners for Progress' and will explore what does true partnership with patients really look like — and how can better conversations help us get there?

It will explore this question from multiple perspectives – including patients, PAGs, industry, HCPs and agency – to examine why partnering with patients matters, what it truly means today and how we can collaborate to advance future partnerships and better outcomes, and move beyond tokenism towards true partnership with patients.
