In today’s technologically based world, a company is only as powerful as its information and its human capital.
Under the broad label of knowledge management, companies amass gargantuan databases of information from internal and external sources. The creation and maintenance of this database/knowledge source and search function is the primary task of certain knowledge management personnel. Their ultimate goal is to have the information searchable and accessible to company employees, thereby maintaining business continuity for a corporation at large. Both medical affairs and research & development factions are equally integral in their roles and contributions in knowledge management.
Pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies have similar knowledge management needs as larger, unrelated corporations. However, their systems, databases and intelligence gleaning software requires unique protections and accessibility to maintain business continuity while keeping information secure. Knowledge management is an integral part of any corporation’s daily function, but optimizing systems innovations with technological advances in our highly digital world is key if a company wants to retain the information they need with the goals of the future. Life science corporations need the most up-to-date tools to handle big data analysis, optimize intranet search engine systems and tools to influence company culture, implement initiatives, and handle different approaches to problems. Current strategies include creating innovations to facilitate information accessibility, crafting a knowledge management strategy to align with company culture, and extracting intelligence and knowledge from documents and Big Data.
This conference is of interest to the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device industry professionals with responsibilites in the following functions:
