WELCOME MESSAGE
Welcome to the Australian Pharmacy Professional Conference & Trade Exhibition (APP), the largest pharmacy event in the southern hemisphere!
It is my utmost pleasure to extend a warm welcome to you to APP 2024! As the Conference Chairman, I am thrilled to see the culmination of efforts, dedication and innovation as we gather for the 34th annual APP.
This year’s conference theme – ‘navigating the future together’ - is not only the theme of the education program but is also relevant to the informal discussions with colleagues and the exchange of ideas which often spark solutions to a shared problem or a new business idea.
I encourage you to seize the opportunity which APP presents to connect with fellow delegates, share your expertise, and contribute to the collective advancement of our field. Whether you are a seasoned veteran or a newcomer to the conference, APP2024 offers something for everyone.
The following pages provide a guide for everything you need to know about the trade show including product launches, activities and amazing giveaways and prizes offered by our exhibitors. Information can also be found in the APP2024 conference mobile event app, which is proudly sponsored by Orion Pharma:
iPhone users: search for ‘APP2024’ in the Apple store or scan the QR code.
Android users: search for ‘APP2024’ in the Google Play store or scan the QR code.
As we embark on this exciting journey together, I extend my deepest gratitude to our conference sponsors and partners for their support in making this event possible.
I wish you all a rewarding and memorable experience at APP2024. May the next few days be filled with inspiration, learning, and meaningful connections that will resonate long after the conference concludes.
Warm regards,
Kos Sclavos AM APP Chairman

TO ATTRACT MORE CUSTOMERS, JUST USE THE RIGHT BAIT.
You don’t need milkshakes to bring all the boys (and girls) to town. You just need Australia’s favourite jelly beans. In fact, in a recent campaign targeting customers who visited a pharmacy that didn’t stock Glucojel, we found they were 23% more likely to hunt down a pharmacy that did on their next visit.
So, if you want feet through your door, you need Glucojel on your shelves.
