Creating Commercial Advantage Through Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

For many new therapies, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is as much a commercial imperative as a moral and regulatory one. For some diseases, think sickle cell or substance abuse disorders, prevalence of the condition in minorities outstrips the general population.

Join a panel of experts as they discuss the steps necessary to create a personalized patient journey that promotes DE&I and ultimately provides underrepresented patient communities with access to innovative therapies.
