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.

The RUSTICA project obtained funding under Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic ‘Closing nutrient cycles’. RUSTICA focuses on demonstration and implementation of circular bio-based nutrient valorisation chains, focusing on waste from the fruit and vegetable agro-food system. The project kicked off in 2021 and will run until 2024. It will use a strong multi-actor approach to co-create both socio-economic and technological knowledge in four case study regions in Europe and one in Colombia. The Flanders-based company DRANCO is one of the project partners and acts as technical project manager for the entire project. DRANCO participates in the project to develop its own technologies, to network and to help make the transition to a more circular based economy.
