"The 10th Pharma Meeting Pros Summit acts as the annual gathering for industry Planners and provides them with an intimate and engaging forum to share their experiences and ideas, as well as an opportunity to learn from their peers and stay current on new trends and technologies. The discussion is valuable and results in practical strategies for increasing the productivity and effectiveness of their events," said five-year Summit Director, Kristen Hunter of ExL Events.

"It's great to see so many people return year after year and benefit from the networking and education this event offers. Over 50% of the 2013 participants had participated in previous years and 64% of the audience represented Planners. The response to the 2014 event has been overwhelmingly positive with new speakers, topics and a soon to be sold-out exhibit hall of leading service providers and event venues. I'm looking forward to another exciting meeting."
