SUMMARY:Biopesticide Summit 2019
DESCRIPTION:Bionema Limited and Swansea University are to host the inaugural Biopesticide Summit and exhibition in Swansea University\, United Kingdom in July 2019 to address the pressing need to develop alternatives to chemical crop protection.\n\n\nThe Biopesticide Summit 2019 will focus on developing and introducing innovative and alternative biocontrol solutions that will help protect our food chain in a controlled but timely manner. \nThe Global biopesticides market is increasing and was worth approximately $3.36 billion in 2016 and is projected to reach $8.82 billion by 2022\, at an annual growth rate of 17.4%. \nDespite significant growth in the biocontrol industry\, major limitations with current biopesticide solutions are rarely discussed. There is an urgent need to develop novel products and application technologies to not only “fill the gaps” in the market due to pesticide removal but also to anticipate future requirements as pests and diseases are developing resistance to currently used chemical products.  In additional\, there is increasing consumer led retailer demand for growers to eradicate the use of chemical pesticides in crop production and to grow fruit and vegetables with reduced detectable residues. \n  \n\nBiopesticide Summit 2019 will:\n\n\n\nCover the global challenges facing end-users and regulators today and in the near future.\nExamine new tools and methods being used to accelerate discovery of new biopesticide products.\nHear about innovative technologies\, novel formulations and application strategies; highlighting how they can be used to deliver high quality formulated products for better efficacy in different cropping systems.\nBring together academia\, industry and investors to commercialise novel innovations.\n\nHead over to the website to find out more and register!

SUMMARY:Clinical Trial Supply Solutions: Optimising your tax strategy today and post-Brexit
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER NOW \nAny business that moves goods into and out of the UK needs to be aware of the rules that will impact taxes payable when goods move cross a border. Although many products in the clinical trial industry are not subject to import duties\, other taxes such as VAT can be applied\, adding an additional – and often unnecessary – 20% cost to the shipping of goods.  \nSharp Clinical Services – in conjunction with David Miller of The VAT People/The Customs People – will demonstrate using real examples\, how Sharp can support you to optimise your clinical trial supplies into and out of the UK\, from both non-EU and EU locations. Learn how to minimise your tax exposure on shipments and get to grips with your Import/Export regulatory obligations. We will discuss the tax landscape as it is today as well as the impact that Brexit is likely to have on your tax obligation in the future. \nSharp Clinical can either act as your ‘Importer of Record’ in which case all applicable charges will be passed through or alternatively\, we can offer you expert tax advice in conjunction with our partners\, to guide you through the process of reclaiming VAT. \nThis webinar will cover: \n\nImports into The EU – The position today\n\nHow import duties and VAT taxes apply in moving goods into the EU now;\nSimple practical steps to ensure that costs are understood\, factored in and most importantly minimised\, especially VAT;\nWhat practical assistance is available;\n\n\nMovements Between EU countries [UK > EU and vice versa]\n\nWhat high level requirements there are in moving goods around the EU;\nHow taxes can be minimised now in moving goods around the EU;\nPractical steps to consider\n\n\nThe Position Post-Brexit\n\nAn overview of the current situation with regards to Brexit [as it stands];\nHow this will impact the current situation;\nPractical steps which can be taken now;\nWhat practical assistance is available;\n\n\n\nOur Speakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDavid Miller\nCustoms Expert\, The Customs People \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIan Morgan\nGeneral Manager\, Sharp Clinical Services \n\n\n\n\nAbout Sharp Clinical \n\n\nSharp UK is based in South Wales and is the European hub of our Clinical Services division. Following a successful inspection by the MHRA\, Sharp can now offer a range of clinical trial and commercial services from the £9.5 million facility including primary and secondary packaging with low humidity control\, labelling\, storage and distribution\, QP services as well as controlled drug storage.

SUMMARY:Food Supplements Special Interest Group (SIG)
DESCRIPTION:Cannabidiol (CBD) – Pandora’s Box? A status update \nCannabidiol (CBD) continues to make headlines\, whether as the next big thing in food and drink or being the centre of controversy. In Jan 2019 a change in the status of CBD on the Novel Food Union List caused ripples across the wellness sector. No definitive position has yet to be agreed\, with trade associations lobbying hard both within UK and Europe. Whilst we are unlikely to have all the answers\, there will be external speakers present. There may be some resolution\, but we don’t have a crystal ball. It’s a great opportunity to meet like minds and be informed about this growing sector. \nThis free to attend event is held as part of the INSTILS programme – a project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund\, click here to be re-directed to further information about the project. \nProgramme  \nBook Now \n  \nPlease note: spaces are limited\, preference will be given to SMEs

SUMMARY:Preparing your NHS Business Case
DESCRIPTION:This interactive and informative event on ‘Preparing your NHS Business Case’ will enable you to prepare better business cases with input from the EMAHSN staff. \nThis free to attend event is being held as part of the SoLSTICE programme – a project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund\, click here to be re-directed to further information about the project. \nDuring the event you will also learn about: \n– What is a business case\, what is its purpose and why it is so important? \n– Who reviews the business case and how are they evaluated from a commissioning point of view? \n– How to construct a good business case \nThe Challenge as a supplier to the NHS is often that when you have a product which from your perspective improves patient outcomes and saves cost you still cannot get it adopted by the NHS. This is often because there is not a fully developed business case\, without this a group within the NHS interested in taking on board a new product or service are unlikely to get approval of the case for change before procurement of the innovation can proceed. \nOrganisations that supply to the NHS are often challenged by the process\, timescales\, evidence and documentary requirements. This can often seem like an unnecessary complication\, or simply a reason to not issue a purchase order. A good business case is fundamental to successful adoption and developing a long term business partnership. Preparing the business case can also be difficult for your NHS contacts because they are busy or not experienced in their preparation and often even more difficult for companies with little or no experience of the process. \nDue to limited seating numbers are restricted to one delegate per organisation. \nProgramme  \nSpeaker Profiles  \nBook Now

SUMMARY:ABHI Regulatory Conference 2019
DESCRIPTION:MDR: Risk Management as a Key Regulatory Tool \nUsing Clinical Data and Postmarket Surveillance to drive Compliance \nThis year’s ABHI flagship conference will focus on the use of risk management as an essential part of the medical device regulatory process. The event will draw on the use of clinical data and postmarket surveillance and their role in effective risk management and how the ISO 14971 standard fits into the overall quality management system for medical devices. \nThere will be a broad range of speakers from industry\, regulators\, notified bodies and a Keynote Address from John Round\, Head of Airspace\, Air Traffic Management and Aerodromes at the Civil Aviation Authority. John will provide a different perspective on the use of risk management techniques in a safety-critical industry. \nOnce again\, this will be an event not to be missed as companies\, notified bodies and regulators move ever closer to full implementation of the Medical Device Regulation. \nIt is also planned to cover Brexit in whatever form is appropriate at the time – watch this space! \n“Some risks that are thought to be unknown\, are not unknown. With some foresight and critical thought\, some risks that at first glance may seem unforeseen\, can in fact be foreseen. Armed with the right set of tools\, procedures\, knowledge and insight\, light can be shed on variables that lead to risk\, allowing us to manage them.”  \n― Daniel Wagner \nCEO of Country Risk Solutions\, Connecticut. Author of Global Risk Agility and Decision Making: Organizational Resilience in the Era of Man-Made Risk \nConfirmed Speakers – More to be added \n\nPhil Brown\, Director\, Technical & Regulatory\, ABHI\nSuzanne Halliday\, Head of Medical Devices\, BSI\nShuna Mason\, Partner\, Head of Regulatory Life Sciences Group\, CMS Cameron McKenna\nJames Pink\, Vice President NSF Certification Ireland Ltd\nYana Pozhidaeva\, Senior Manager\, Clinical Quality Assurance\, Abbott\nGraham Tunbridge\, Group Manager Devices Regulatory Affairs\, MHRA\n\nDelegate Pricing \n\nABHI Members Early Bird – £325.00+ VAT\nNon Members Early Bird – £425.00 +VAT\n\nFor bookings of more than five delegates\, please email ukevents@abhi.org.uk \nEarly Bird pricing ends 31st August 2019 \n  \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:ISCF Application of whole Genome Sequencing approaches to Cancer
DESCRIPTION:The aim of this competition is to support projects that use whole genome sequencing to analyse cancers.\n\n\n\n\nInnovate UK\, part of UK Research and Innovation\, will invest up to £5.4 million of the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund as part of the Data to Early Diagnosis and Precision Medicine Challenge. \nApplications can be made for both feasibility and collaborative projects lasting up to 18 months and with maximum eligible costs of £1m. \nThe aim of this competition\, which opens on 7 October and closes on 22 January is to support projects that use whole genome sequencing to analyse cancers. This can be through the manipulation of existing whole genome data\, through the collection of new sequence data or through a combination of both. \nPossible approaches include but are not limited to: \n• the development of new analytical or reporting tools for clinical decision support\n• the identification of molecular signatures that allow for new or improved targeting of therapies\n• the identification of new therapeutic targets\n• new genetic signatures that can be used clinically\, such as markers that support repurposing of drugs or a personalised approach to patient management\n• the comparative assessment of alternative assay methods in parallel with whole genome sequencing \n  \nApplications that apply other forms of genetic analysis\, including gene panels or arrays\, in isolation will not be eligible for funding. \n  \nIf you are interest in learning more about this ISCF competition\, register here to attend the briefing event that will be held in Birmingham on the 30th of October. \nNot able to attend? This event will also be available via webcast and you can register to join online here. \nFind the slides from all KTN webcasts via Slideshare. \nYou can view the full competition page here. \n  \nFollow the link below for the full event agenda and registration. \n\n\nREGISTER

SUMMARY:Food Supplements Special Interest Group (SIG)
DESCRIPTION:Sustainability in Food Supplements – driving change in turbulent times. \n2019 has seen an increasing trend towards sustainability\, be it reducing meat consumption\, climate change activism or increased awareness of our disposable society. \nRecognising this movement\, we wish to close the year with our final networking meeting in Food Supplements examining what can be done as innovators and entrepreneurs in this area. We have created a programme that looks at innovative sources of raw materials for potential use in food supplements\, plastic reduction and minimising waste by using local manufacturers. To understand some key trends and meet some very new innovative ways of using waste for future nutrition. \nThis free to attend event is held as part of the INSTILS programme – a project part funded by the European Regional Development Fun.
