Name: Agentic Pharma Summit
Start: 2026-11-09
End: 2026-11-10
Location: Convene at CityView

WELCOME

Why we built this.

Agentic AI is moving faster than pharma’s playbook. It is already changing how commercial marketing, medical and sales executives run their business, reach patients, and support clinicians. The pace is unlike anything the industry has absorbed in years.

Welcome to the inaugural Agentic Pharma Summit. If you work on AI or agentic projects in a commercial role, this was built for you.

The program was shaped by our Founding Advisory Council and through research with hundreds of commercial leaders from across the industry. Both fed directly into the agenda you see today and into the faculty we assembled. It is made of real agentic stories, told by leaders willing to say what is working and what is not.

Come to debate and pressure-test your own approach against a group of peers solving the same problems you are. It will be a busy two days, but we promise to make it well worth your time out of the office.

WHY ATTEND

Top reasons to attend this event.

01

Benchmark where you actually stand.

Hear where commercial teams at other pharma and biotech companies actually are with agentic AI, what has worked, what has not, and how they made the case.

02

Face time with your peers.

Senior commercial leaders from the top pharma companies, together for two days. Agentic AI is moving faster than the industry can publish, so this is the candid peer conversation you rarely get.

03

Build the foundation before you scale.

The data, governance, and operating-model decisions that determine whether agentic AI actually delivers. Twenty-four sessions and counting, built around the calls you are making this year.

04

Be early to the playbook.

This is where the commercial playbook for agentic AI gets written: what MLR and compliance are actually approving, how to ship inside a regulated environment without slowing down, and where the category goes next.

05

Meet the tools and partners driving the change.

The technology vendors and solution providers building agentic AI for pharma are here. See what is real, pressure-test the platforms, and connect directly with the partners driving and leading the change, alongside the commercial teams deploying them.

Life sciences commercial leaders who are actively working with agentic AI today. Practitioners with hands-on experience to share.
