Looking to attend Breakthrough 2027 in London but need approval from your manager? Here’s how to demonstrate the value of attending and make a compelling business case.
Taking place on 2–3 March 2027, Breakthrough brings together life sciences leaders, innovators, and industry experts to explore the technologies, strategies, and decisions shaping the future of the industry.
Under the theme Gain the Decision Advantage, Breakthrough 2027 builds on the conversation around operationalizing AI, shifting the focus towards how organizations can translate innovation into measurable business value, stronger performance, and more confident decision-making.
With complimentary registration, the primary investment is your time, travel, and accommodation. Here’s how to demonstrate why that investment is worthwhile.
-
Align Attendance with Your Business Priorities
The strongest case for attending starts with your organization’s goals.
Whether your team is focused on scaling AI adoption, improving operational efficiency, strengthening compliance, or connecting data across functions, Breakthrough 2027 will explore the challenges and opportunities influencing transformation across life sciences.
The event will bring together perspectives from across Safety, Regulatory, Medical Affairs, and Quality, helping attendees consider how emerging technologies and new approaches could support their own business objectives.
Make your case: Identify two or three priorities relevant to your organization and explain how attending could help inform your team’s strategy or future initiatives.
-
Learn from Real-World Industry Experience
Understanding how other organizations are navigating transformation can be just as valuable as exploring the technology itself.
Breakthrough offers opportunities to hear from industry leaders and customers about their experiences with AI, automation, and digital transformation, including the practical considerations involved in delivering meaningful results.
Through keynotes, discussions, and opportunities to explore innovation, attendees can gain perspectives on what’s working, where challenges remain, and how organizations are approaching the next stage of AI adoption.
Make your case: Highlight the value of learning from real-world experiences and bringing practical insights back to your team.
-
Benchmark Your Approach to Innovation
As AI and connected technologies continue to reshape life sciences, organizations need to understand not only what’s possible, but how their approach compares with the wider industry.
Breakthrough 2027 provides an opportunity to explore developments across LifeSphere, NavaX AI, and connected data technologies, alongside broader conversations about innovation, governance, and operational transformation.
These insights can help attendees evaluate emerging approaches, challenge existing assumptions, and identify opportunities worth exploring within their own organizations.
Make your case: Position attendance as an opportunity to assess industry developments against your current priorities and inform future technology and process decisions.
-
Build Connections with Industry Leaders and Peers
Breakthrough isn’t just about what happens on stage. It’s also an opportunity to connect with the people navigating similar challenges across the life sciences industry.
From conversations with fellow attendees to opportunities to engage with ArisGlobal experts, the event creates space to exchange experiences, explore different perspectives, and build valuable professional relationships.
These connections can support continued learning and collaboration long after the event concludes.
Make your case: Emphasize the opportunity to connect directly with industry peers and experts, gaining perspectives and relationships that can benefit your wider organization.
-
Demonstrate a Clear Return on Investment
For managers and budget holders, the decision often comes down to the value of attending compared with the time and cost involved.
Breakthrough 2027 is complimentary to attend, meaning the main considerations are travel, accommodation, and time away from day-to-day responsibilities.
To demonstrate the potential return, consider committing to specific outcomes:
- Strategic insights: Share key industry trends and perspectives relevant to your organization’s priorities.
- Practical recommendations: Identify ideas or approaches that could improve existing processes or inform future initiatives.
- Leadership learning: Bring back perspectives on how organizations are managing change, technology adoption, and strategic decision-making.
Setting these objectives in advance demonstrates that attendance is more than a professional development opportunity. It’s an investment in knowledge that can benefit your wider team.
