An overview of some PM Society activities

The Pharmaceutical Marketing Society was founded in 1976. Initially styled the PM Club when its primary focus was a social one, the change to the PM Society in the mid-1980s brought with it a new philosophy and concentration on meeting the professional needs of its members.

The PM Society currently has over 1400 active members from more than 230 companies.

We are always looking for ways to improve our offering to you, our member, so if you have any suggestions then please do contact us.

The Society is not-for-profit organisation which is run for the benefit of its members by a hard working volunteer committee. This enables our events to offer the greatest possible value for money for the participants.

To answer the need for improved marketing training within the industry, the PM Society launched PriMe in 2005. PriMe is a flexible, modular training programme developed by the industry for the industry that addresses the specific needs of pharmaceutical marketing.
