Lesser known, perhaps, is our fluency in pharma and our emergence as a desirable, affordable destination for seamlessly productive business events in the pharmaceutical, biotech and medical fields. in this uniquely demanding arena, our ability to create smooth meetings speaks volumes.

Pharma meetings and conventions work so well here our attendees don’t have to sweat the details: like the caretaking of sensitive medical materials and information. or having to explain and re-explain your industry’s or company’s rules and regulations.

Here you’ll work with convention personnel who understand the very specific challenges and competitive nature of your business. on an island that is truly connected and completely wired for every kind and size of pharmaceutical project – from small-scale intensive work sessions to city-wide conventions.

Pharma fluent means walking the industry walk. The Puerto Rico Convention Bureau staff has been trained extensively in meeting the specific needs of the pharmaceutical industry. So when you interact with one of our sales managers, event planners, or service executives, you’ll be communicating with someone who knows more than industry terms.

our Convention Bureau staff is well versed in: • pharmaceutical company structure • meeting consolidation trends • pharmaceutical company regulations • private nature of pharmaceutical conferences • differences between pharmaceutical and other types of healthcare and biotech

our expertise extends to an experienced network of member-suppliers, hotels, and Destination Management Companies, among others, who are equally well-versed in pharmaceutical compliance rules and issues.

our fluency comes with PRaCTiCe. and inveSTmenT.Puerto Rico has over 40 years experience in the bioscience industry, and we’re building on that. our commitment in education and capital has led to a growing reputation as one of the most specialized locations for bioscience investment in the world. it’s also a positive business climate, supported by excellent human resources and infrastructure investment. And a success story that only gets larger. Pharmaceutical, biotech manufacturing and research are a large part of our economy. How large? • Puerto Rico manufactures 13 of the 20 top-selling pharmaceutical products. • our growing expertise with biotech products has earned us three consecutive mentions in the Bio State

Bioscience initiatives Study, as well as the catchy nickname “Bio island.” • Puerto is home to over 50 pharmaceutical manufacturing plants, one of the highest concentrations of high-

tech drug manufacturers in the country. • our medical devices market is expanding – we’re currently the seventh-largest exporter of scientific and

medical instruments. • We are developing a new biotech research park and processing plant with life science, technology, and lab

facilities. The goal is to continue to develop Puerto Rico as the biosciences, pharma, and medical thinking tank of the Caribbean.

• Local headquarters of important shipping carriers like Fedex, uPS and DHL have special services available to help meet the temperature and humidity sensitive shipping requirements of pharmaceutical, biotech, diagnostic, and medical materials.

and, part of our vocabulary: affoRdaBle. ConvenienT. ReSouRCeful.

We make every event a Smooth event with meeting space that adapts to everything from pharmaceutical and medical conferences to expos and education seminars. Smoothness is also a product of experience.
