PMRC Europe was created to address the growing importance of market research, analytics, forecasting, competitive intelligence, and related functions within life sciences organizations. Over time, the agenda has evolved alongside the industry, covering topics such as research methodologies, forecasting, competitive intelligence, artificial intelligence, customer and patient understanding, data integration, and the role of insights teams in commercial and strategic planning. Through case studies, panel discussions, roundtables, and peer-led sessions, attendees explore how these approaches are being applied across the industry.

One of the conference's defining characteristics has been its emphasis on practitioner-to-practitioner learning. Rather than focusing primarily on industry trends, PMRC Europe has consistently centered on how teams conduct research, interpret findings, communicate insights, and support business decisions within their organizations.

In recent years, PMRC Europe has been co-located with Pharma CI Europe, bringing together professionals working across market research, competitive intelligence, business intelligence, and strategy. This format has expanded the range of perspectives available to attendees while maintaining the conference's focus on insights and decision support.

In 2027, PMRC Europe will be co-located with Fierce Pharma Week Europe. The conference will continue to serve the market research and insights community while becoming part of a larger gathering of pharmaceutical professionals working across commercial, strategy, analytics, intelligence, and business functions. PMRC Europe will retain its focus on the practical application of research and insights while giving attendees greater visibility into how those insights are used across the broader organization.
