Pharma & Life Sciences
Compliance is not a review at the end. It decides the venue, the catering, the travel class, the contracting and what the record has to show.
The shape of the work
A pharmaceutical meeting is a normal event with a second rulebook running through it. Hospitality caps, venue standards, faculty contracting, honoraria, transfer-of-value disclosure and a documented separation between science and commercial.
We build to your code of practice from the brief, so the shortlist your compliance team sees is one they can approve — rather than one that gets rejected after the dates are gone.
What this sector needs from an agency
- Code-of-practice-compliant venue sourcing
- Faculty contracting, honoraria and fair market value
- Transfer-of-value capture and reporting
- Itemised billing by cost head
- Auditable attendance records
- Multi-country meetings under differing local codes
Sector reality
Four things that decide the plan.
Policy decides the shortlist
Codes restrict venue type, location, standard and travel class. Sourcing that ignores them wastes three weeks and the best dates.
Itemised, or it is not auditable
Accommodation, meals, travel, faculty and venue split by cost head so each can be tested against its cap independently. A consolidated invoice fails audit.
Transfer of value captured at source
Recorded per healthcare professional as it occurs, in the disclosure format — not reconstructed from supplier invoices a quarter later.
Attendance you can evidence
Who was actually present, in which session, for how long. Badge scanning attached to the compliance record rather than to a marketing dashboard.
Formats
What pharma & life sciences usually runs
Other sectors
We work across twelve.
Technology & SaaS
Content-dense events with live product on stage, a technical audience that notices when something fails, and attendance that has to be earned.
SectorBFSBanking & Financial Services
Precision, confidentiality and a record that survives scrutiny — with hospitality that has to be defensible as well as good.
SectorAUTAutomotive & Mobility
Large channel audiences, physical product on stage and regional travel from everywhere — three logistics problems in one programme.
