Programme

We look forward to welcoming all delegates and speakers to what promises to be an engaging and thought-provoking Event.

This year’s NHS Scotland Event in partnership with The Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI) and supported by Buddy Healthcare, will focus on Transforming Health and Care Services through Collaboration and will engage delegates with an extensive programme as well as offering the welcome opportunity to network with colleagues, exhibitors and poster authors.

Transforming Health and Care Services through Collaboration

Please make sure to read through the programme below and book onto the sessions you feel are most relevant to your place of work.

We would encourage those delegates who are attending to take back your learning to the workplace, share insights, tools and techniques with your colleagues and have those important conversations.

All resources from this year will be available to view and download after the Event.

When registering, there will be an option to attend either in-person or via our virtual platform – please ensure you select the option that its relevant to your requirements.
