Gerald WeirowskiRegional Manager GxP Compliance Austria & Adriatic Region, DHL Global Forwarding (Austria) GmbH“The Pharma Air Freight industry is still built in the siloed manner, and we are still operating in this silos quite successfully but the model is not sustainable. FlyPharma is contributing to the understanding of the requirements that are bringing us all together to help and build the joint platforms that will reunite the pharma Air Freight community.”
“The FlyPharma panel that I moderated was about the application and the ethical aspects of AI use in the pharma air freight supply chain. It was a very interesting discussion; we had stakeholders from aviation and airline representatives, pharma manufactures and experts from the AI industry and IT sector involved. It is always an emotional discussion, evaluating pros and cons of AI application and the future concepts. AI is the future of technology, allowing for real time collaboration. A platform like FlyPharma allows stakeholders to come together and discover and develop concepts where we can work with third party, neutral AI providers to support the industry and pioneer solutions.”Dr. sc. Zvonimir MajicFormer Global Director of Supply Chain Quality Assurance, TEVA Pharmaceuticals“Many life-saving shipments are not delivered on time, this is a big issue that many pharmaceutical companies are facing each day. This is extremely important and must be urgently solved.”
Victoria IvicicCustoms & Trade Compliance Manager, Takeda“The networking opportunities at FlyPharma Vienna 2024 were great. We met existing customers, networked with big logistics companies and met a lot of new people that we didn’t know previously. The Gala Dinner networking event was especially good for networking and was nice that people were placed randomly at tables. We would definitely exhibit and attend again, as our biggest clients attend.”
Dr.-Ing. Dirk NehringManaging Director, Delta T“I believe that events like FlyPharma are unique platforms for industry leaders, peers and stakeholders in the global supply chain. FlyPharma allowed us to share information, exchange insights and work on new solutions.”
