FAQs

What can I expect?

Our Patient Innovators Summit is an invite-only event for commercial executives to come together for high-quality networking and learning. This is not a traditional conference - there are no vendors or exhibit hall. Expect quality networking, dynamic industry keynotes, and candid fireside chats and conversations with other biopharma leaders who share a passion for improving the patient experience. (Rewatch last year’s recap here.)

This year, we’re adding two afternoon tracks: Business (designed for Market Access & Patient Services professionals) and Commercial IT/Ops.

The day will end with our Patient Innovators Awards Ceremony, recognizing the leading patient programs! Stay tuned for more details around nominations launching later this summer.

What if I need to make a call or take a meeting?

While we encourage attendees to block the day to be as present as possible, we know things come up. The venue provides plenty of space to break away from programming if you need to take a call, and WiFi credentials will be provided on-site.

What is the dress code? 

Business. Coat and bag check will be available upon arrival.

What about dietary restrictions? 

Your invite should have asked for your dietary restrictions, but please reach out to colleen.wood@courierhealth.com with any questions and concerns!

Will there be networking opportunities? 

Yes, quality networking is a key focus of our Patient Innovators Summit, including:

  • Monday night welcome event - spots are limited so please register here.
  • Dedicated breaks and mealtimes
  • Fireside chats and panel discussions
  • Tuesday afternoon cocktail reception and optional dinners

We will share a private “Attendee Lookbook” in late September so attendees can familiarize themselves with other attendees.
