Join us for our Third Annual Life Sciences Forum Presented by ICON plc, sponsored by Aer Lingus Innovation and the Financial Impact Along the Drug Development Path

Innovation often starts the drug discovery process, but innovation also inspires change in development, manufacturing, supply chain, and drug delivery in nearly every step of the drug development continuum. The financial impact can also be seen at all levels of development. The debate over rising drug prices has become a full-blown blaming game with drug companies pointing the finger at middlemen in the health-care system, saying they not only benefit from rising drug prices but contribute to their increases…Who is responsible for high drug pricing? The Irish Chamber’s third annual Life Sciences Forum brings a unique and deep perspective to this debate.

Honoring & Remembering Our Friend, Jim McLaughlin

On July 24th, 2015, we lost founding board member and past president, Jim McLaughlin, to brain cancer. Jim, a Havertown resident, was a proud graduate of Monsignor Bonner High School and Saint Joseph’s University.

In the early days of the Irish Chamber, together with a close-knit group of colleagues and friends, Jim helped the Chamber flourish. He served on our board until June, 2013, including a term as president. Jim possessed a natural skill of networking and connecting people, and mentored many fellow Chamber members throughout his 16-year history with the Irish Chamber. He attended nearly every event and made every effort to make all members feel welcome.

Join the conversation. Let your friends know you are attending, use the hash tag #JimSJU70 and include us on your tweets, @IABCNphila
