Our conference theme this year, “How to develop a digital mindset and embrace your digital ecosystem”, reflects our commitment to exploring the latest advances, sharing best practises and fostering a community of forward-thinking professionals.

Our #PLA2024Europe program has been carefully crafted to discuss the most pressing challenges and exciting opportunities in the digital lab space. From insightful keynote addresses from industry leaders to interactive panel discussions, hands-on workshops from experts and thought-provoking presentations, the conference promises an immersive experience that transcends traditional boundaries.

As we navigate this digital landscape together, we encourage you to actively engage, ask questions and collaborate with fellow participants. The Paperless Lab Academy® is not just a conference, but a dynamic platform for sharing knowledge, networking and fostering the evolution of labs around the world.

How to develop a digital mindset within the organisation

An opening focused session on “Developing a digital mindset within the organisation”. 3 keynote presentations, followed by a panel discussion, from Roche Diagnostics, GSK and Zeta Farmaceutici Group will light the discussion on the human factor of ,
3 realities of the pharma industry on its digital transformation journey, its own strategy, its own team and knowledge, its own pace.

• “Strategic Workforce Planning as a success factor for the digital future” by Andreas Steinle, Digital Integration Lead @ Roche Diagnostics
• “Blue Sky Project: Soft skillsto implement a lab software that kills” by Silvia Primon, Quality Control Manager @ Zeta Farmaceutici Group
• “Embracing the Digital Shift: Nurturing a culture of innovation and collaboration in lab transformation” by Domenico Palumbieri, Digital Operations Leader @ GSK

New Digital Experiences

Multiples examples from industry leaders about how they have created new digital experiences.
Every digital lab projects aim for improvements within the organisation. Every single presentation will touch a specific topic from which the audience will be able to discuss further. Such as how to increase efficiency through optimised tasks planning, how to leverage business decision with insightful information, how to develop a data-driven mindset through a decidated tool, how to harmonise and standardise processes,  how to balance GMP, non-GMP tech devlopment, how to apporach lowcode- no code software platfrom …

How to Live and Continuously Grow a Quality Culture of an Organisation

Another dedicated focused session about “ Living a Quality Culture”. 3 experts, 3 different backgrounds, experiences, roles and projects in hands will take us through their journey in driving quality culture within organisations.
Because Quality culture does not come with an “On” button that magically transforms an organisation.  Changing quality culture is the most difficult part of any data integrity program as it requires the whole organisation from the Board Room to the lab bench to have the same culture and ethos that enables individuals to admit their mistakes without fear of retribution.  Through this session, we will explore how data integrity and quality initiatives can be enhanced within an organisation.  To illustrate some quality culture problems, we will use examples from FDA 483 observations, warning letters and the daily challenge in QC.  The aim of these presentations is to generate attendee questions for the discussion session that follows.

How to Achieve High Productivity and Compliance with a Robust LIMS

From Caliber Technologies you are invited to discover and discuss about their experience about digital transformation project in the labs.  When labs undertake digital transformation, they look for ROIs like compliance, efficiency, profitability, etc. A robust LIMS system can ensure that these ROIs are met effectively.

Rajasekhar Gollapinni, Head-Global Delivery has led the implementation of India’s First 100% Paperless Lab. He will discuss about how a LIMS helps in productivity and compliance, how to ensure that the lab is chasing the right ROIs, and how to make the best use of a LIMS.

Practical applications of Data Integrity and Audit Trail Review

From Lonza Informatics you are invited to learn and discuss about the why, what, when, where, who and how of audit trail review. Understanding your Audit trail and the ability to review the data contained in it is essential to compliance.

Karthic Sreenivasan, Manager Informatics, will discuss about regulatory requirements around audit trail review and he will share examples of audit trail review strategies. During this 1-hour workshop, Lonza will demystify the audit trail by providing recommendations and examples of good vs bad audit trails and providing tools to evaluate your systems for inspection readiness.

Digitalization: the Lab of the Future and Lab 4.0

From Labware you are invited to discuss about the trend of the future laboratories. The Lab of the Future, Lab 4.0, is the collective name for the technologies and processes that will enable the next generation of scientists and researchers. Mark Gonzalez, Technical Director will discuss about how technology will enable the transformation of Laboratory processes along with their challenges and strategies.

Pharma R&D to Manufacturing : Importance of Digital Continuity

From DS Biovia, you are invited to learn about how Dassault Systèmes helps research labs, process development Labs, CROs, CMOs and CDMOs achieve collaborative innovation and operational excellence through digital continuity.

Basha Kodidela, BIOVIA Senior Manager, Technical Sales, APAC will explain why going paperless requires of digital continuity.

A collaborative data management tool for chemical and biological therapeutics

From CDD, Collaborative Drug Discovery, you are invited to learn about why a standardized tool is very much in demand to manage the big dataset and share it with collaborators.

There is a growing need to securely integrate public data with private data. Dr Antima Gupta, application scientist will present their cloud-based data management tool Collaborative Drug Discovery (CDD) Vault that provides a more collaborative hosted informatics technology. New approaches that would allow scientists to do efficient research in order to handle registration of complex chemicals (stereochemistry, mixtures, synthetic conjugates) and biologicals (nucleotides, amino acids and complex drug-like biological entities i.e., Antibody drug conjugates, PROTAC, molecule Glue) as well as assay data around these entities, all can be covered using CDD Vault.

The paperless life sciences value chain

From Global Value Web, you should expect a session discussing about the paperless life sciences value chain. Where Global Value Web’s portfolio of managed data science service contribute to a paperless life sciences industry. As digitization partner along your digital transformation journey’s, in turn Global Value Web will make Indian life science companies’ better partners to the global pharma & biotech (& medical device) industry.

The digitalisation journey toward the Industry 4.0

From Sparta Systems, part of Honeywell, you should expect a session discussing about any progress made since the concept of industry 4.0 introduction 10 years ago, have we made it more complex in an effort to get rid of paper and why digitalisation is to be considered just the beginning of the journey.
