Working in our industry should be something to be proud of: to save and improve human life is one of the most noble causes to dedicate a life to. But our current model is stifling our ability to deliver.
We can do better. Join the movement.
Pharmageddon USA is a 2-day innovation experience designed to reframe your thinking from what pharma is to what it could be. We’ve thrown out drawn-out vendor presentations and predictable press readings and replaced them with Ted-talk style case studies and provocative panels.
Rather than sitting on your hands, at Pharmageddon you’ll get them dirty as we help you to envision then create a new and improved future through our unique solve sessions. It’s the event of the year for industry innovators, and you don’t have to take our word for it:
“The focus was on innovation, digital and then new value proposition for patients and healthcare - critical elements in challenging the pharma status quo and encouraging industry disruption to create a more sustainable, greater future.”
Stefan König
CEO, Merz Therapeutics
“A fantastic opportunity to both share our insights and learn from other dedicated pharma professionals who share the same commitment to transforming the pharmaceutical industry for the benefit of patients.”

“I'm grateful for the opportunity to share insights and engage with industry leaders on how to beat the treadmill. We should focus on delivering business value and not only transforming business for the sake of following a trend.”

Rob Hastings

“Bringing together the Pharma industry and patients to co-create and redesign with new lenses a new way to collaborate in the future is a great challenge that Paul Simms and the Impatient Health team took on.
As patient advocates, we were given the opportunity to open the two day event. And we did. We challenged the industry and shared our ideas to really work with the patient.”
Teresa Ferreiro
Founder and CEO, Soul Reconnect
“I came back to work after Pharmageddon energised, inspired and full of hope about our ability to embrace the change needed to contribute better to patient health. We were all there to drive or to be part of the change.”
Claire Chartier
Global Medical Excellence Director, Grünenthal
We’ve distilled the best parts from design thinking, futures thinking and service design to create a new innovation method that works for pharma. Over the course of two days, we’ll show you:
We get it - your time is precious. Here’s how we’ve ensured this experience gives you ROI.
Most conferences say they’ll provide you with new ideas, but we know the reality doesn’t match the marketing. This agenda has been designed by leaders in the Pharma industry alongside our in-house think-tank and combined with hands-on exercises to take you from talking about the big issue, to solving it.
We’ll teach you our tested recipe for innovation at Impatient Health, which takes the best parts from design thinking, service design and future planning. You’ll achieve more than you thought possible, learning how to solve problems, but also how to win internal support too.
We carefully curate our network and only invite the best and brightest to take an active role in this event. You’ll see a snapshot of this group listed below, but be sure to check out the website for the latest list – it’s growing every day.
