"I felt the meeting was very well organised and really provided us with an opportunity to meet up with colleagues from other pharma companies and valuable time with suppliers as well. The presentations were both relevant and informative, providing ideas to bring back to the UK and catalyse change within our own company" - Mark Woodcock, Sales Force Excellence Manager, Bayer-Schering

Demanding, dynamic, changing, challenging - all words that can be used to describe the healthcare environment you're working in, in Europe. Cost-containment and decentralisation are driving changes in healthcare systems acrosss Europe making it more difficult for you to gain access to your customers, get your drugs on reimbursement lists and increase sales.

Coupled with budget constraints and downsizing in your organisation, this is a very turbulent time for sales executives who are still expected to sustain growth and satisfy shareholders. As a result pharma companies are reorganising their structures, re-aligning their processes and integrating their functions in order to put the chnaging customer base at the centre of their business and drive sales excellence.

That's not an easy task: Key Acount Management, influence mapping, system integration, change management, CRM optimisation, incentive schemes, KPIs, targeting, call quality, regulatory compliance are all topics which need to be addressed and evaluated in order to plan and implement your strategy. That's where this conference can help you!

Latest news! Dramatic changes for the 2008 event

We at eyeforpharma, as the organisers of the industry's biggest get-together, are rising to the challenge of effecting positive change on the industry, in the interest of everybody who attends our events and their future prosperity. The event is the biggest and best in the calendar and to ensure we keep it that way, we must keep ahead of your significant upcoming challenges.

We plan to implement a series of quite dramatic changes in 2008 to ensure that SFE Europe remains the best and biggest sales management event for Pharma in Europe. These include:

  • Quality, case-study-based presentations and break-out session monitored and reviewed by a team of SFE experts who will work with facilitators and speakers for at least 2 months prior to the conference to ensure a consistent quality
  • No sales pitches! Presentations and workshop for solutions providers and consultants will be strictly limited to ensure a positive outcomes for you.
  • Innovative presentations and break-out sessions: SFE is now a mature subject. Rather than just concentrating on SFE in general, we'll focus on uncovering new topics, as there is real innovation in many areas of SFE. The format of the event will be redesigned to focus on specific topics rather than a general programme
  • More Networking and Delegate Face-time: We know this is what you want, so in 2008 we will be adding more time to ensuring you get as much time as possible to network. Days will finish earlier to ensure you stay focused and interested throughout the event.
