The SCDM EMEA Programme Committee invites abstract submissions from CDM experts to be included at the SCDM 2022 EMEA Leadership Forum & Conference programme. The five conference themes give an idea of how CDM leaders plan on addressing new opportunities and challenges. They provide an important perspective on regulatory focus; as well as exciting innovations enhancing efficiency in CDM. They drive home the message that if the past has taught us anything, something entirely off the radar can challenge the status quo, and that its down to the SCDM community to continue writing the narrative. It’s a new dawn, be part of it!!
