ProgramModerated networking tables
Moderated networking tables
Thirty minutes, one topic, one table.
About the format
Moderated networking tables are small-group conversations on a focused question, hosted by an expert moderator. They run in half-hour slots throughout both afternoons and are the most direct way to talk shop with peers.
Each table is branded by its host and built around one question the host wants to discuss with the room: how AI is accelerating drug development, what surprised you most when scaling from research to clinical trials, whether Switzerland can lead the advanced therapies revolution. The moderator opens, the table talks.
Hosts submit the topic, a short summary and the moderator ahead of the event. Table, topic and host appear in the program, on the conference website and in the printed conference guide, so participants can plan which tables to join.
