Pharmacy Business Conference 2025: Pharmacy leaders urge sector to embrace innovation as funding gaps persist

On Sunday April 6th over 200 owners of community pharmacies and other related partners gathered to hear and share their current mood, experiences and plans. Some were already embracing disruptive innovation to drive their business forward, others wanted to learn how they must adapt and adopt new ways of working knowing that doing nothing is not an option.
The conference heard from Shailesh Solanki, Executive Editor at Pharmacy Business, that whilst the recently announced contractual settlement was welcomed, it will not be enough to fill the gap to sustain the sector as is reflected in the drop in contractor numbers below 10,000.
Reena Barai, conference chair, set the scene with a personal story about the challenges she faces running her own pharmacy, one which resonated with delegates who were asked to share their current mood through a word cloud. This clearly expressed their concerns about their current situation and future.
