Building on Mario Draghi’s urgent call for action to help Europe regain its competitive edge and on President von der Leyen’s vision for a new Life Sciences strategy, this event will be a forum to discuss the role of health in the next EU political cycle.

The event targets stakeholders from the pharmaceutical industry, policymakers, patient advocates, and healthcare experts to discuss how to work together to ensure faster, more equitable access to medicines and how AI is revolutionising health research.

Confirmed speakers include Hans Kluge (WHO Europe), Monica Shaw (BMS), and Lars Fruergaard Jørgensen (Novo Nordisk). Member of European Parliament (MEP) Nicolás González Casares (S&D), MEP Stine Bosse (Renew Europe), and MEP Tomislav Sokol (EPP) will also join us to share the European Parliament’s vision for the life sciences industry in the new mandate.

For the first time, EFPIA is partnering with Similes, a Brussels-based charity dedicated to mental health support, to raise funds for their "Family Home Support" project. EFPIA is committed to matching every euro raised for this charity.

MareGraph - Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph

The MareGraph project, ‘Towards an Interoperable Marine Knowledge Graph’, obtained funding under the Digital Europe topic ‘OPEN-AI – Public Sector Open Data for AI and Open Data Platform’. The project will increase the semantic, technical, and legal interoperability of three selected high-valued datasets (HVDs) all maintained by the Flanders Marine Institute (VLIZ), which is one of the four partners of the project. This will allow the onboarding of essential marine datasets in the Common European Data Spaces. As such MareGraph will provide a structural component in the digital transition of the marine landscape. The numerous impacts of the project will benefit our seas globally in old and new ways to come.
