Postponed, delayed, curtailed, or outright canceled — you heard
these words too often in the past 18 months. But as the global economy
recovers, your company wants to come out of the starting gate fast with
new applications and new market initiatives. Is your firm’s
infrastructure ready to answer the call? Will you need to refresh
network, server, or storage gear to meet the demand? Should you
consider cloud or other strategic outsourcing alternatives? Do you have
the skills you need to leverage new virtualization and automation
tools? Can you finally fulfill that long-held dream of transforming the
infrastructure and operations (I&O) function from an organization
based on technology silos to a true service delivery team? These are
the tough questions you need to prepare for as 2010 arrives.
This year’s I&O Forum will focus on the enormous tasks of
planning, prioritizing, justifying, and carefully executing the wide
range of people, process, and technology projects needed to get your
firm “back in the black.” Specifically, the Forum will answer questions
such as:
- How will I&O drive a fast recovery for firms by planning and
prioritizing infrastructure initiatives that best align with business
goals?
- How will I&O teams adapt and apply the recessionary behaviors
of business case justification and financial acumen and tune them to
the new norm for communicating with business leaders?
- How will I&O assess the post-recession readiness of its infrastructure to meet current and future business needs?

The healthcare industry is coming under ever increasing scrutiny from regulators, both in the US and Europe, and the level of penalties are severe. In September 2009, Pfizer paid $1.3 billion, the largest criminal fine ever imposed in the United States, for the off-label marketing of Bextra and three other drugs. Pfizer paid an additional $1 billion in civil penalties resulting from the same illegal activities.
Whilst anti-corruption compliance is an issue for all major industry sectors, Pharma, Biotech and Medical Device companies are finding themselves particularly vulnerable when specific practices and industry customs are placed under the microscope. In the last 6 years, U.S. prosecutors have brought more than a dozen cases against drug makers for off-label marketing alone and won more than $6 billion in criminal and civil settlements. Estimates indicate that there are currently more investigations underway by the SEC and DOJ combined against medical device manufacturers than any other industry.
Reasons to Attend this Industry Leading Event:
- The leading experts from Switzerland, Luxembourg, France, Belgium, Germany, USA and UK
- High profile panel discussions: Including Conducting on-going Risk Assessment and Maintaining an Effective Compliance Programme
- Unique perspectives: hear from the former US Attorney General’s National Chair of the advisory committee on health care fraud

Accounting scandals and corporate governance shortfalls have led to new laws across Europe requiring greater transparency and heightened shareholder protections. At the same time, legal systems have been reformed to give shareholders unprecedented access to the courts. Such developments expose directors to greater liability, and lawsuits naming companies and their directors have consequently increased throughout Europe. Some recent suits have been settled for hundreds of millions of Pounds.
With more and more suits being brought, underwriters clearly need to be concerned about their exposure to claims, but the threat of regulatory investigations and shareholder suits is also creating unprecedented demand for D&O insurance. Significant growth in D&O premium volumes is now expected in the coming years, driven by both rate increases and new companies seeking to purchase D&O insurance.
Attend D&O 2010 in order to hear from the leaders and experts in the field of D&O liability insurance on:
- Where the claims are coming from and who they are being brought by
- The latest D&O policy structures, product innovations and terms and conditions
- POSI products: what is covered, what is excluded?
- The precarious position of the non-executive director
- Capacity, premiums and exclusions in FI renewals
- The liability of directors and officers on insolvency
- Potential D&O insurance opportunities in emerging markets

Time to sit back and relax?
No! If you
don’t want to see those figures creep back up again you need to sit
down and take a long hard look at what the industry is doing right and
make sure it continues.
On the other hand, if you take another look at the figures above, there are two different messages you may not have seen: Clearly there are still plenty of things going wrong, do you know exactly what all of them are? And could you honestly say that you have all the solutions?
Upstream Safety 2010 returns this year to help you
do all of the above. Whether your focus is on behavioural safety,
process safety or an amalgamation of the two, there will be a stream to
fit your needs. And what’s more, following the feedback of last year’s
attendees we will be capitalising on the interactive aspects of the
meeting.
According to research with operators across the North Sea
benchmarking is one of the most effective tools in the fight to make
the offshore environment a safer place to work. |

Widening OFAC Investigations of European Entities Continue to Make Headlines.
Is Your Company or Client Next?
Now more than ever, economic sanctions pose unprecedented compliance risks for financial institutions, insurers and exporters in Europe.
The US Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has stepped up its international enforcement efforts and is committed to ensuring all global companies carefully comply with US sanctions regulations no matter where located. The £231 million Lloyds TSB penalty, the largest fine ever imposed for violations of US sanctions regulations, ANZ Bank’s recent $5.75 million settlement as well as other investigations into the shipping industry, continue to serve as a harsh reminder of the magnitude of consequences for entities that violate US sanctions laws.
While ongoing OFAC investigations continue to grab headlines, European and foreign entities must also be ever mindful of UK and EU sanctions developments. The Financial Services Authority recently released a report on economic sanctions compliance to encourage all firms, large and small, to enhance compliance processes. Moreover, cooperation between US and European sanctions authorities is increasing and EU Member States are taking steps to tighten and enforce sanctions regulations.
Under this increased climate of risk, global companies and financial institutions operating in Europe must institute preventative measures and enhance existing compliance programmes. Failure to detect and prevent sanctions breaches is otherwise likely to result in staggering penalties and reputational damage.
Following the success of their Economic Sanctions conferences in London, Frankfurt and Washington, DC, American Conference Institute and C5 Group are pleased to introduce the 3rd European Forum on Economic Sanctions. Senior government officials, industry leaders and attorneys will once again provide insights on critical sanctions issues, including:
- OFAC’s compliance expectations for US and non-US entities
- Working effectively with HM Treasury on obtaining licenses
- Designing effective systems and controls to prevent sanctions breaches

The year 2010 marks the beginning of a new decade in 21st-century art
historical investigation and an ideal moment for a reassessment of
historical objects, issues, and methods, as well as acknowledging newer
works of art and criticism developed across disciplines, periods, media
and practice boundaries. Papers that address or employ new methods and
issues are welcome, but equally important will be
state-of-the-discipline investigations and critical assessments that
may be uni- or multi-disciplinary, object-based, pedagogical,
interrogative, theoretical, or performative. While we hope that the
full historical and methodological range of the discipline will be
represented, and the proposal of sessions devoted to the widest
possible range of periods and cultures is encouraged, the 2010
conference particularly welcomes proposals related to medieval and
Renaissance topics.
The AAH Bookfair is an annual event that takes place during the
annual AAH Conference. The Bookfair takes place over three days within
the main conference venue. The Bookfair comprises many international
publishers and magazines and attrracts upto 500 conference delegates.

More than 70% of the IT projects in the UK fail every year and over 80%
of them fail in the requirements analysis phase. Poor project
management, bad organizational politics, false business priorities,
lack of commitment and other issues can also cause a project to fail.
Patterns of software systems failures and their study have resulted in
the development of numerous models, methodologies and frameworks, yet
project and system failures persist. Requirements understanding,
analysis and specification have emerged as critical areas in software
and systems engineering.
The topics of interest include but not limited to - Formal Methods and Notations for representing requirements
- Requirements analysis theories, concepts, methods and techniques, and their practical applications
- Business process and workflow modeling, analysis, integration and management
- Requirements quality and adherence to standards
- Requirements Quantification
- Methodologies for information systems design and implementation

The healthcare industry is coming under ever increasing scrutiny from regulators, both in the US and Europe, and the level of penalties are severe. In September 2009, Pfizer paid $1.3 billion, the largest criminal fine ever imposed in the United States, for the off-label marketing of Bextra and three other drugs. Pfizer paid an additional $1 billion in civil penalties resulting from the same illegal activities.
Whilst anti-corruption compliance is an issue for all major industry sectors, Pharma, Biotech and Medical Device companies are finding themselves particularly vulnerable when specific practices and industry customs are placed under the microscope. In the last 6 years, U.S. prosecutors have brought more than a dozen cases against drug makers for off-label marketing alone and won more than $6 billion in criminal and civil settlements. Estimates indicate that there are currently more investigations underway by the SEC and DOJ combined against medical device manufacturers than any other industry
As companies focus on steering themselves out of the economic downturn, they can ill afford a bribery and corruption probe as well. Reviewing and revising an effective corporate anti-corruption compliance policy will demonstrate to employees and, if necessary, regulators, that your company considers anti-corruption compliance to be an important corporate goal. If undertaken properly, anti-corruption compliance can be a valuable corporate asset that enhances company operations, facilitates compliance with law and mitigates damage when and if violations occur.
Don’t allow what has happened to other companies happen to your organisation.
With increased international co-operation, the potential for investigations is growing by the day. It has never been more important for the healthcare industry to benchmark their compliance programmes, compare operating practices and review internal anti-corruption procedures.
Hear from top industry experts and their advisors, including representatives from:
- Leading pharmaceutical, life sciences and medical device companies
- Key regulatory bodies
- Top international law firms

The US Withholding Tax QI Regulations as you know them are changing almost beyond recognition. These changes remain fluid, and it would take a brave person to state with any confidence how the regulations will look when they are finally made law. This has resulted in a great deal of confusion within individual firms – both QIs and NQIs, and including stockbrokers, private wealth managers, institutional fund mangers and custodians – as to the best response.
To this end, Osney Media’s Withholding Tax on US-sourced Income event on 20th and 21st April will provide a timely opportunity for all those affected by these sea-changes to benchmark with peers, and hear the thoughts of many of the global thought leaders in the field. It will be the best opportunity for the market to convene and find out just what is going on, what has changed, and how this will affect your individual roles and your company’s position. Planning ahead has never been more important.
Over 120 people attended the previous event on October 2009, and the impact of US government bills HR3933 and HR4213 (and any other relevant bills) means this event will be just as popular. The landscape has changed dramatically even since October, and you cannot afford to miss this opportunity, whether your focus is strategic, operational or legal. We look forward to helping you come to terms with the potential impacts – whatever they may be come April 2010! |

Having run highly successful CSV conferences in the past, in 2010 SMi are revisiting the issue of Computer Systems Validation in the Pharmaceutical Industry to look at whether the pharmaceutical industry could change its attitude towards CSV, so that it is done sensible, effectively and practically.
Taking place in London, UK, this conference will focus on a wide range of issues withing the CSV arena, including the regulatory aspects to CSV - whether the current guidelines need expanding, reinterpreting or rewriting - CSV in an R&D context, the need for a risk-based approach to CSV, the respective benefits of doing CSV in-house or contracting it out, and developing a `bigger picture` approach to CSV.
Questions examined during the conference will include: what is the role of QA departments? How much CSV is enough? Does CSV hamper clinical R&D? Should all CSV be risk-based in analysis? Should the industry use a consortium approach to vendor-CSV audit? Are consultants too widely used - would CSV be done better in-house? What are the CSV implications for mergers? How to develop a quality model?
Attend this event to discover how computer systems validation does not have to be difficult, time-consuming and costly, and to learn how to plan for better implementation of a CSV programme. |

An inspection conducted by the US FDA is a very important milestone
in any pharmaceutical company`s lifecycle. A successful inspection
opens the door, or retains access to one of the world`s most lucrative
markets. When it is unsuccessful the inspection can seriously damage
the reputation of individuals within the company and the company
itself. Penalties such as Warning Letters and Import Restrictions can
easily be applied. Further action such as severe fines and Consent
decrees can follow; these measures can seriously affect the viability
of the company. FDA look for a culture of Quality that is led from the
very top of the company. The format of this course is a mix
of classroom activity and practical workshops to prepare you for
different types of FDA inspections and the challenges they present.
The course is directed toward personnel from, development, manufacture,
quality and/or regulatory compliance who are responsible for FDA
inspectable activity relating to the manufacture and quality control of
pharmaceutical products for the USA market. THIS COURSE WILL PROVIDE: - Background to FDA`s Inspection authority
- The background to changing FDA approaches
- The knowledge to help you prepare to successfully host an FDA inspection

Cloud
Computing is an increasingly heard buzzword in the telecoms industry
these days and there seems to be substance behind the buzz. By moving
into the Cloud Computing arena, and beyond their role as mere
connectivity providers, operators will be able to position themselves
within the value chain in a very prominent role.
IIR’s Telecoms Cloud Services Summit
will examine how operators can leverage their core strengths and
existing assets to develop and deliver competitive cloud-based services
that will differentiate them from other Cloud companies and deliver
true value to their customers. Operator case studies and expert
presentation will address the internal technical and organisational
prerequisites and potential external barriers to the successful
deployment and adoption of cloud services. In addition, the event will
explore the various cloud service models (SaaS, IaaS, PaaS) and service
model combinations that are emerging and that will enable operators to
create new and sustainable revenue streams.
The Summit will feature practical
operator case studies, expert presentations as well as interactive and
informal discussion sessions that will enable delegates to find answers
to their most pressing questions. The exhibition accompanying the
Summit will give delegates the opportunity to network with industry
experts and explore the latest Cloud Computing solutions.

SMi`s industry-leading High Throughput Screening conference returns for its sixth year. The theme of this year`s conference will be how to lead HTS down an intelligent route towards lead generation.
Taking place in London, UK, this conference will look at a wide range of issues within the HTS arena under several `topic umbrellas`. The State of the Industry will look at the best of HTS now, outsourcing and hit-to-lead bottlenecks. Focussing HTS will investigate methods to increase the quality of the leads generated. There will be in-depth studies into In-Silico Screening and GPCRs, and finally, a look to the future in New Screening Technologies.
Questions examined during the conference will include: how successful is HTS now? Is outsourcing worthwhile economically? What are the IP issues? Can intelligent research outperform HTS? Does iterative screening hold the key to obtaining high quality leads? How can we redesign the HTS framework? Do we rely on established assays too much? Can virtual screening ever replace HTS as the standard lead generator? How can HTS be used successfully in harnessing the power of GPCRs? What is the potential for biophysical tools to be used in screening?
Attend this event to discover how High Throughput Screening can be made more intelligent, more focussed and more beneficial in drug discovery |

Capturing, retaining, and transferring your company’s most valuable asset
Why Attend:
The need for cost effective information management and integration is more critical than ever.

Increasing Efficiency, Agility and Performance Through Continuous Improvement And Process Excellence
For Pharmaceutical, Biotech and Medical Devices companies, ensuring quality and economic efficiency are top of the agenda. The more streamlined your processes, from R&D to supply chain to manufacturing, the better the chances of beating your competitors. As Lean, Six Sigma and Continuous Improvement projects gather momentum in an ever competitive and changing market, successfully implementing process excellence initiatives has never been as important.
With the significant increase in M&A activity, merged organisations are now also having to accurately determine how to define, analyse, engineer and integrate process across multiple business units. These are neither quick nor easy challenges. But they are crucial to realising the projected benefits of mergers and to ensure the new company operates in a more efficient, cost-effective, process-driven way. |

| It is widely recognised that the roll-out of smart metering in Great Britain will represent the largest and most complex change-over programme in the energy industry for decades. It will have a profound impact on the services that consumers receive from energy companies, as well as on vital ‘behind the scenes’ activities such as settlement and network management.
In October 2008 the Government announced its intention to mandate a roll out of electricity and gas smart meters to all homes in Great Britain with the aim of completing the roll out by the end 2020. The Government published a ‘Consultation on Smart Metering for Electricity and Gas on 11 May 2009. This Consultation was aimed at confirming the shape and high-level requirements for the domestic roll-out. It also set out proposals to mandate a smart/advanced meter roll out for small and medium non-domestic sites.
Decisions set out in the Government Response Document provide the platform to launch the major programme of implementation work that will be needed to ensure that the Government’s goal of a full roll-out of smart meters by the end of 2020 is successfully achieved. To realise all the benefits fully, the roll-out of smart meters will need to be effectively designed, planned and co-ordinated at every stage. A major programme of work therefore needs to be taken forward under an Implementation Programme before the mass roll out of smart meters begins.
Join over 300 senior level industry experts during Smart Metering UK & Ireland 2010 and discuss the way forward in Europe’s largest smart metering roll-out! |

According to the European Wind Energy Association (EWEA), O&M
costs have dominated the economics of grid connected wind turbines in
recent years; however O&M has oftentimes been neglected. The rapid
development of this renewable energy industry means there has never
been a more important time to safeguard wind farm assets and build on
innovative O&M strategies in order to increase turbine reliability
and in turn profits. Tough decisions need to be made quickly in this proactive
industry to solve the challenges of offshore O&M, health and safety
hazards, obsolescence of components and implementing new technologies.
Don’t let the important questions go unanswered such as:
- Should we implement condition based monitoring and if so, which one?
- How do we improve our accessibility to offshore wind farms?
- How do operators and manufacturers maintain strong lasting relationships?
- What new technologies should we be put into operation to increase efficiency?
- What are the important health and safety guidelines?
- How do we optimise our O&M strategies with our current wind farm portfolio?

Established among in-house and private practitioners alike as the market leading event, since 2001, thousands of life sciences patent professionals have made C5`s Pharma Patent Lifecycles Extension conferences their source of information for the most up-to-date legal developments surrounding patent lifecycle extension and management.
Extending the a product’s patent lifecycle has become increasingly important in the pharmaceutical industry. High R&D costs and the lengthy product testing times that are required before products can enter the market make it particularly important for companies to be able to extend their product exclusivity.
Maximising protection and value from extending the life of a patent has become more and more complex as patent, competition and regulatory law continually changes. Ground-breaking case law, legislative developments and evolving regulation mean that the rules of the game for effective patent lifecycle management and extension are constantly changing.
In this fast changing high stakes industry it is imperative to have an up-to-the-minute in-depth understanding of the decisions of the European and US courts and the very latest practices in Europe and the United States, including with the European Competion Commision.
In response to this, C5 has specifically designed its Pharma Patent Lifecycle Extension Conference to provide you with a sophisticated and comprehensive understanding of the issues you face today and offers you practical solutions. It will tell you everything you need to know from initial patent filing to obtaining regulatory data exclusivity. The will bring you up to date with the latest legal developments and offers the best practical solutions to your patent lifecycle management.
The 9th C5 Conference on Pharma Patent Lifecycle Extension brings together a panel of experts comprising regulators, leading patent practitioners and senior lawyers who will provide you with practical knowledge and strategic advice on:
- The Impact of Regulatory Data Protection on Lifecycle Management
- Recent Trends and Developments in Supplementary Protection Certificates and Paediatric Extensions
- The Latest Status of the European Competition Commision and the Dawn Raids
- Using Second Medical Use Claims to Extend Patent Lifecycles

The current pressure on businesses to cut costs and improve revenues is likely to foster increased corruption risk-taking. Many European governments have strongly seized the enforcement mantle. The UK Bribery Bill which will come into force in 2010 has proved this point. The Bill will make it illegal to bribe a foreign official to obtain or retain business. If businesses fail to prevent a bribe being paid by their employees or by other firms on their behalf, they will face prosecution. The new corporate offence means that unlimited fines may be imposed on companies found guilty and individuals who make illegal and improper payments to secure business may face fines and imprisonment of up to ten years. Organisations which have not reviewed their risk profile are increasingly exposed. Recent cases of fraud underscore the importance of due diligence robust systems of control to detect and prevent fraudulent activities and that companies need to implement.
C5’s Forum on Anti-Corruption, London Edition is THE annual event that continues to bring together key industry leaders and government representatives in order to discuss the critical issues and best practices for companies to improve their anti-corruption and anti-fraud policies in this ever changing landscape.
Share your knowledge and expertise with your industry peers and colleagues.

Tourism has become a major international industry, with many countries all over the world relying on the income it produces. Its economic advantages as a major source of finances and employment lead to its active promotion by governments and other institutions independent of the consequences on the environment, ecology and social structure of the affected regions.
The demands of tourism can contribute to the destruction of the natural and cultural environment upon which it depends. The natural and cultural landscape’s capacity to accommodate the local and worldwide effects of tourism, the typology thereof and its implications for the economy and society constitute very important study objectives. The development of tourism can result in the degradation of natural landscapes which paradoxically attract tourists to such areas.
Sustainable Tourism 2010 aims to find ways to protect the natural and cultural landscape through the development of new solutions which minimise the adverse effects of tourism. This can be achieved through the development of new strategies involving the active collaboration of society as a whole. Such solutions ought to cope with the continuous growth of tourism impacts on the country including culture and society.
This conference will explore issues concerned with achieving environmental, social and economic sustainability of tourism alongside the governance mechanisms needed to support sustainable tourism.It could also discuss how new resources ought to be employed to avoid the errors committed in the past and propose remedial actions when required. The meeting will also focus on empirical work and case studies from around the world, which can offer new insights and best practice guidance.
Sustainable Tourism 2010 will adopt a multi disciplinary approach and specifically aim to foster greater understanding and collaboration between scientists and social science experts, practitioners and policy makers. It will take a broad view of this sophisticated and complex industry, and will examine the practice of sustainable tourism from global travel trends through to destination and site management. Innovative solutions, including those involving ecological tourism are particularly welcome as well as cultural initiatives that will lead to better approaches to tourism with the objective of preserving the diversity of our planet.

In 2003, in Poitiers during the first international ePortfolio
conference, EIfEL set the goal that by 2010 every citizen should have
access to an ePortfolio. How effective have we been and far are we from
that goal? Should it be postponed to a further deadline or should we
set a new one, e.g. on digital identity? To find the answers to these
questions and more, join us at Learning Forum London, 5-7 July 2010, at
the Savoy Place. The event will feature ePortfolio 2010, the 8th
international ePortfolio conference, with a special track on healthcare
as well as Key Competencies 2010, the 4th international conference on
skills for life.
The 7th international ePortfolio, is organised in conjunction with two
other conferences: Key Competencies—Skills for Life and Learning
Networks and Communities. Develop relationships with professionals and
developers who are evaluating and recommending technology decisions for
their organisations. This event can also help you reach your marketing
goals. Past sponsors and exhibitors reported that they were very
pleased with how well the Conference generated leads and awareness for
their services and products.
