120+ Speakers — The Leaders Running Pharmacy Today
The lineup at Becker’s Spring Chief Pharmacy Officer Summit reflects the people making decisions inside pharmacy departments right now. It includes Chief Pharmacy Officers, VPs, and senior pharmacy leaders responsible for workforce, growth, and financial performance. This is one of the few events where more Chief Pharmacy Officers are in the room than at any other conference. The same leaders you benchmark against are the ones on stage.
About the Conference
Speakers come to be part of the conversations you need to be in
The roster is built around one question: who does this audience need in the conversation? Speakers are selected based on the decisions they own, the systems they run, and the peers they work alongside.
Over 90% of the speaker lineup is health system leaders and executives.
