Throughout the event, attendees also had the opportunity to attend dedicated tracks covering a range of topics such as: strategy, digitalisation, temperature-controlled operations and MedTech supply chains. These sessions facilitated more intimate discussions with industry experts, enabling attendees to visit the track most relevant to their specific interests and challenges.
