What it covers
FDLI's own description frames the program around government priorities and enforcement trends in medical product promotion, breakthrough technologies changing how products are marketed, and the strategies companies use to stay compliant as both the products and the channels evolve. Past editions have paired FDA speakers with industry and outside counsel and patient-advocacy representation — the format FDLI's materials describe for this conference generally.
Who should attend
Regulatory affairs and promotional-review leads who route claims through Legal/Regulatory/Medical review, in-house and outside counsel handling FDA enforcement correspondence, and marketing compliance professionals at pharma, biotech and device companies. The virtual option makes it reachable for teams that can't send someone to Washington for two days.
