Leader of Tomorrow 2020

Your opportunity to pave your way to a successful career in life sciences and to join a growing network of enthusiastic professionals who seek the same.

Europe in 2020 is infused with special significance. It is more than just the beginning of a new decade, it also sees a new European Commission, with new plans and ambitions. For the Leader of Tomorrow programme, it marks a new opportunity for students and emerging professionals to embark on a fresh journey of personal and professional development.

What does Leader of Tomorrow offer you?

Leader of Tomorrow makes you part of an inclusive community specifically designed for students and young professionals. It provides you with real-world insights into the life sciences environment and allows you to build your own meaningful professional networks.

It is the perfect platform to meet and interact with peers and to seek advice, career counselling and mentorship from life science professionals. It is both a source of inspiration and an opportunity to inspire.

    Explore the huge variety of career possibilities that life sciences can offer you. As an Emerging Professional or a Student, you will benefit from the Leader of Tomorrow Programme, taking place on 16 March, with a set of onsite visits tailored to meet your professional ambitions and goals, taking place one day prior to the start of the DIA Europe annual conference. You will have an opportunity to visit EFPIA (European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations), MSD and European Commission & Parlimentarium.

    The focus is on learning more about the career opportunities within the life science sector; in the pharmaceutical industry, in trade associations and in NGOs, while addressing the importance of the European policies in healthcare. All of this is taking place in Brussels, the heart of the EU.

    Please note that the site visits are open to anyone, however, the priority will be given to applicants who have registered for the conference as young professionals or students.
