Key Questions Before Attending a Medical Congress

March 19, 2025

Medical congresses are essential touchpoints for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Whether you’re preparing for your first congress or refining your existing strategy, thoughtful planning is critical to maximize your ROI. At BioLogic Pharma Solutions, we guide companies through this process to ensure every engagement counts. 

Before attending a congress, it’s important to ask the right questions:

1. What is the Primary Objective?

Are you attending to present new data, scout the competition, build brand awareness, or meet with potential partners? Clarifying your objective will shape your overall strategy and determine how you allocate resources. 

2. Who Are the Top Targets?

Identify the Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs), collaborators, and investors you need to engage with. Schedule meetings with them ahead of time to ensure you make the most of face-to-face interactions during the event. 

3. What's Your Story?

Whether you’re hosting an exhibit booth or leading a session, your scientific narrative must be clear and consistent. A clear story builds trust and ensures your audience walks away with the right message. 

4. How Are You Different?

Will you stand out from competitors? Why should someone stop at your booth or attend your session? Offering something unique, whether it’s exclusive data insights or a novel approach to engagement, can drive traffic and interest. 

5. What's the Post-Congress Plan?

Follow-up is often overlooked but critical. Do you have a process in place to reconnect with KOLs and integrate key insights into your strategy?
