Singapore Pharmacy Congress was held in Suntec Convention Centre as well as over a virtual platform on 23-24 July 2022. The first hybrid Congress held by pharmaceutical Society of Singapore and first face to face meeting for participants who decided to go onsite after 2 years, it was exciting to meet up with friends and fellow pharmacist at last!

GOH Senior Minister of State for Health Janil Puthucheary announced the important initiative from HSA to roll out the Health Supplement and TCM database in this Congress , and many other initiatives and ideas were shared in either the sessions during the Congress or with like minded pharmacists over lunch/ coffee/ wine. And everyone get to unwind and reconnect during the social night on 23 July evening.

Kudos to the organizing committee for a successful Congress, especially those from the industry chapter!
