In June 2023, the Industry Chapter welcomed its new team members and bonded over a delightful dinner, exchanging industry insights, catching-up on recent updates, while cooking up creative ideas for our future plans and activities for the PSS members.

Taking into consideration the wishes, inputs and preferences gathered through a survey from the PSS members, the Industry Chapter has constructed 4 major pillars to be rolled out as a series of networking events, common-interest social gatherings, educational talks and mentoring programmes for the next 2 years.
The 4 major pillars are
A) Member Interests Groups
- PSS Members who share common interests in industrial functions will have the opportunity to gather and connect over fun-filled social activities and events. Participants can exchange ideas, share experiences, and learn from each other.
B) Networking Sessions
- Apart from being an educational sharing session from eminent speakers regarding the pharmaceutical industry, participants can take this chance to strike up meaningful conversations, thereby igniting new friendships, building connections and learning new insights from one another.
C) Continuing Education (CE) Talks
- This will be a virtual (Zoom) session open to sign-ups by all PSS Members. Participants can expect to gain informative ideas, tips and sharing of experiences from prominent industry pharmacists via these CE Talks.
D) Mentoring Programme
- This is a great opportunity for mentees to match with mentors and learn from the latter's sharing to deepen their understanding of the workings of the pharmaceutical industry. With advice from the mentors, mentees can be better equipped and prepared to make career decisions and other important life choices as well.
With that said, do keep a lookout for updates from the Industry Chapter and seize the opportunity to partake in these exciting activities ahead!
