I personally enjoy the wide range of information streams from product knowledge to pharmacy management mixed with plenty of clinical sessions too.

An opportunity to communicate, grow relationships and launch new products with pharmacy owners and staff in one location. An event not to be missed

I have attended APP at least 10 times and still get so much out of it. I love chatting to old friends and colleagues, meeting new people and picking their brains for ideas and insights

HEAR FROM PAST ATTENDEES

Maria Keskeridis B. Pharm.
Pharmacist Proprietor

I have attended APP at least 10 times and I still get so much out of it. The trade fair is great to be able to talk face to face with our suppliers and get inspired and the lectures are varied and interesting, but best of all I love chatting to old friends and colleagues, meeting new people and picking their brains for ideas and insights. Being on the Gold Coast is an added bonus too!

Brianne Shephard
Pharmacy Group Manager

APP is the biggest pharmacy conference event of the year and one that I most certainly never miss. I personally enjoy the wide range of information streams from product knowledge to pharmacy management mixed with plenty of clinical sessions too. I always find there is at least one session that is a must see and often come home with a note pad full of ideas and action points for my team. However, the trade fair alone is a reason to attend with free admission for anyone from the pharmacy industry.

Liz Chidlow
Retail Manager

I always enjoy the APP conference and look forward to it each year. The trade fair is a highlight. We are a regional store and don't see a lot of reps/companies. It is a great opportunity to see new products and discuss credits/ dated stock and arrange display material. I enjoy the clinical bites and the short educational sessions.

Maria Gualtieri, BD Rowa™

APP is without a doubt our most important event on the marketing calendar every year. It is a fantastic chance for our team to meet with so many industry professionals, new and familiar, in the one location. It also provides us the perfect opportunity to showcase our automation and digital solutions, as well as our latest innovations. APP is a worthwhile investment for our business and with so much packed into the event, the four days just doesn’t seem long enough!”

Darryn Flood, Rocktape

Any conference that can fill the Gold Coast Convention Centre with exhibitors and delegates is a must for brands and pharmacists within the pharmaceutical industry! An opportunity to communicate, grow relationships and launch new products with pharmacy owners and staff in one location. An event not to be missed – lock in APP2022!!

Rosie Batty knows pain no woman should have to suffer. After her son was killed by his father in a violent incident that shocked the nation and the world, Rosie became an outspoken and dynamic crusader against domestic violence. Before her recent shift to focus on less public-facing advocacy work, Rosie ran the Never Alone campaign which led the push to put domestic violence victims at the centre of all decisions. Rosie is now Chair of the Victim Survivors’ Advisory Council for the Victorian Government, which is in response to the country’s first Royal Commission into Family Violence. In 2015, Rose was named Australian of the Year. She has also been named as one of Fortune Magazine’s top 50 world’s greatest leaders and has been inducted into the Victorian Honour Roll of Women.
