    Pharmaceutical Companies

    Dr. Michelle Rozen’s groundbreaking 2025 research on AI Adoption shows that in pharma, where innovation is constant and global coordination is complex, AI can either streamline discovery or fracture team cohesion.

This highly engaging  keynote delivers a clear framework for navigating fear, building alignment, and helping teams adopt AI solutions without compromising accuracy or confidence.
