9:00 am - 10:30 am Workshop 1: Cross-Functional Launch Excellence: Breaking Down Silos

In today’s increasingly complex launch environment, fragmented communication and unclear ownership can derail even the most promising therapies. True launch excellence is built on cross-functional synergy — where clarity, collaboration, and accountability empower faster, more impactful execution. This interactive workshop dives deep into aligning diverse teams around shared goals, smoothing operational friction, and driving collective momentum. This workshop will explore:

·       Defining and embedding cross-functional roles with clarity and accountability across departments

·       Establishing shared KPIs and communication rhythms to drive alignment and transparency

·       Designing launch team structures that promote agility, ownership, and shared success

You'll leave with a practical playbook to resolve silos and energize your cross-functional launch teams.

Workshop 2: Launch Window Optimization: Mastering the Critical 6 Months Post-Launch

The first six months after launch are make-or-break. Early performance signals, market reactions, and operational execution during this period set the tone for long-term success—or stagnation. Maximizing this window requires rapid iteration, data-driven decisions, and organizational agility. This workshop is designed for collaborative exploration in:

·       Analysing real-time data to guide fast, informed post-launch tactical decisions

·       Integrating market access, supply chain, and commercial teams for agile response

·       Developing tailored action plans for continuous optimization after launch

 You’ll leave with a structured approach to driving momentum, learning, and adaptability in the critical launch window.
