‘From Inspiration to Action’ Announced as Pharmacy Connect 2025 Conference Theme

Conference Convenor, Kos Sclavos AM, has today announced ‘From Inspiration to Action’ as the theme for Pharmacy Connect 2025. This theme reflects the conference’s commitment to empowering delegates to turn knowledge and emerging trends into practical, real-world strategies that drive impact in pharmacy practice.

An unmissable event for pharmacy professionals, Pharmacy Connect 2025 will take place at the Hyatt Regency Sydney from 3-5 September. The conference features a two-and-a-half-day education program, pre-conference workshops, a 70-stand trade exhibition, and networking events, including the Welcome Reception and Cocktail Party.

“Our theme, From Inspiration to Action, is about equipping attendees with the tools and confidence to move beyond ideas and into implementation,” said Mr Sclavos. “Whether it’s responding to regulatory reform, adopting innovative technologies, or expanding professional services, this year’s program is designed to support pharmacy professionals in turning inspiration they gain at the conference into tangible outcomes.”

The Pharmacy Connect program is being carefully curated, with networking as a key component to curate unique opportunities for delegates to connect with peers, industry leaders, and suppliers.

“Pharmacy Connect is designed to facilitate high-quality interactions, making it ideal for those looking to strengthen their professional connections,” said Mr Sclavos.

This year Pharmacy Connect 2025 will offer a dedicated learning stream for pharmacy assistants. This change from previous years brings attendees from all areas of the pharmacy industry more closely together.

“Our pharmacy assistant stream provides targeted skills development and career growth opportunities, reinforcing the important role assistants play in the sector,” noted Mr Sclavos.

The Trade Exhibition at Pharmacy Connect 2025 is structured to facilitate engagement and quality connections between delegates and industry representatives, suppliers, and service providers.

“Our exhibition space is designed to encourage meaningful conversations and collaboration,” said Mr Sclavos, “so delegates leave inspired with fresh perspectives and actionable insights they can implement in their businesses.”

Mr Sclavos went on to share that “Pharmacy Connect is a must-attend event for pharmacy professionals, and we’re pleased to offer early bird savings for those who register now. By securing a ticket early, attendees can save $100 off their registration.”

Attending or thinking of attending Pharmacy Connect for the first time? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! From navigating the busy schedule to making the most of networking opportunities, here are some top tips to help you get the most out of your Pharmacy Connect experience without feeling overwhelmed.

Get organised early

The key to making the most of the conference is to plan ahead. The program for Pharmacy Connect 2025 will be out in May, so keep an eye out on the conference social media channels! Once you have the program, pick out the sessions, workshops, and speakers you want to attend. The program is split into different streams, like business, clinical, and, for the very first time, a dedicated pharmacy assistant education stream, so you can easily choose what you want to learn about and how you want to upskill.

Register for the pre-conference workshops

One of the best ways to start your Pharmacy Connect 2025 experience is by attending one or more of the pre-conference workshops on Wednesday 3 September. These hands-on sessions give you the chance to dive deeper into important areas of the pharmacy industry, from refreshing clinical skills to business ownership advice. They’re also a fantastic way to get warmed up ahead of conference sessions and earn extra CPD credit. Plus, they’re often more intimate, so you can ask questions and really engage with the material in a hands-on environment.

Network, network, network!

This is your chance to meet and connect with like-minded professionals from across the industry and all over Australia. Don’t be shy! Whether you’re at a workshop, wandering through the trade exhibition, or at one of the social events, introduce yourself and make connections. Plus, be sure to download the conference mobile app (available late-August 2025) so that you can easily exchange contact information with your new connections. You can even include your LinkedIn profile in the app to easily connect after the conference.

Check out the trade exhibition

With 70 trade stands showcasing cutting-edge products and services, the Trade Exhibition is an absolute must. Give yourself plenty of time to explore, and don’t be afraid to ask exhibitors questions. This is your chance to discover new tools and technologies that could make a real difference to your pharmacy.

Enjoy the social events

Yes, Pharmacy Connect 2025 is about learning and professional development, but it’s also about having fun! The social events are a great way to meet people in a more relaxed setting. Whether it’s at the Welcome Reception, or the Cocktail Party, make sure to join in and register ahead of time. You never know who you’ll meet or what connections you’ll make.
