Just Released! IPhO Diversity Initiatives Analysis

April 10, 2023

Industry Pharmacists Organization (IPhO) is pleased to announce the release of its first Diversity Initiatives Analysis! For the past two years, IPhO and its supporters have launched multiple initiatives aimed at increasing equity and inclusion in the pharmaceutical industry—including skill development opportunities and tailored workshops focusing on virtual interviewing, public speaking, and presenting for industry to help student pharmacists of color advance in their careers.

In addition, IPhO and its partners have awarded scholarships to students of color to enhance equity and access to a variety of valuable IPhO resources, including IPhO Membership, Annual Meeting Registration, and 1-1 Coaching.

The goal of this research was to assess the value of IPhO diversity initiatives and their impact on helping student pharmacists of color succeed in the pursuit of a pharmaceutical industry career.
