Our Head of Global Digitalization & AI, Sayan Sarkar, recently joined the AI in Pharma Project Management event by Why Summits? in Basel on stage and as panelist, sharing insights on how Artificial Intelligence is reshaping the way pharma companies work.
While AI continues to dominate today’s discussions, Sayan highlighted that the real needs of companies are often overlooked amid the hype. Many professionals remain cautious, concerned about rework, loss of control, or a decline in critical thinking. Despite the excitement, the practical benefits of AI adoption in daily operations often do not yet match the growing investments.
Sayan’s key message was clear: to truly unlock AI’s value, companies must invest not only in tools, but in the foundation that makes AI successful.
- Infrastructure & Security
- Master Data & Workflow Design
- Employee Upskilling Platforms
At Tiefenbacher, we follow this approach through cost-effective training and our internal AI platform Alfred, fostering a culture of learning and practical innovation.
Across all discussions in Basel, one insight stood out. No matter the size of the organization, the challenges of digital transformation are remarkably similar. We returned with valuable insights into project management methodologies and best practices that will strengthen our own technological projects.
Let’s continue to learn, collaborate, and shape meaningful AI transformation with purpose and clarity.
