Seminars
As pharma and biotech organisations face pressure to increase productivity through AI, automation, and headcount reduction, there’s a growing need to connect the dots between EHS, continuous manufacturing, and sustainability. This closing panel will explore how aligning these areas can unlock operational value, enhance safety, and support long-term strategic goals.
Key Questions to Be Addressed:
- How can EHS leaders play a strategic role in productivity and transformation programs driven by AI and continuous manufacturing?
- What are the risks of overlooking EHS and sustainability in efforts to reduce FTEs and increase automation?
- How can organisations practically align safety, efficiency, and sustainability goals to realise measurable benefits?
- What leadership behaviours and structures are needed to bridge operational and EHS functions effectively?
- Learn how to align safety culture with purposeful action: reframe safety as part of the drug development mission
- Safety is foundational and when integrated properly, it empowers seamless, compliant, and high-performing operations
- Consider treating safety as an operational strength to enable faster decision-making, smarter risk management, and ultimately, the ability to bring medicines to patients faster without compromising ethics or compliance
