Fusion 9, under the theme, Where No One Has Gone Before: Compliance & Quality in the Future, is expected to be Pilgrim’s most educationally diverse conference to-date with a focus on the future compliance and quality landscape and evolving disruptive technology. The event will bring in quality and regulatory experts, current Pilgrim users, and select business partners from across North America and Europe, to discuss industry best practices, share success stories and learn more about Pilgrim’s integrated software solutions.
The event also will feature guest speakers from the manufacturing and FDA-regulated sectors who will share their industry and subject matter expertise with attendees. Pilgrim’s business partners will highlight their products and services and how they extend the business value of Pilgrim’s solution.
“Our goal is to provide an affordable continuing education opportunity to our customers and allow them to network with their peers among our diverse user community in an enjoyable, relaxed setting," said Prashanth Rajendran, Pilgrim’s Chief Operating Officer. "As our eight previous Fusion conferences have proven, the most successful user gatherings are contingent on active customer participation. Attendees look forward to exchanging ideas freely and learning directly from their peers. That’s the atmosphere they’ll discover at Fusion 9 as well."
Fusion 9 will offer a wide range of educational opportunities for attendees. Learning sessions are geared to appeal to users, and technical and executive-level attendees. The Fusion 9 user lab will provide hands-on training and mini-workshops. Special Interest Group (SIG) meetings will enable attendees to meet with other customers in small, interactive groups to discuss their processes, share their best practices and provide input into future product direction. Pilgrim will also provide hands-on training opportunities for attendees on its latest solutions and technology.
"The 2012 agenda will feature a diverse panel of Pilgrim customers who will provide best practices and in-depth discussions on the issues they face every day, as well as a broad representation of leading Risk, Compliance and Quality industry experts to help our customers prepare for future operational and regulatory challenges,” Rajendran said.
