    I was in Denver recently and started chatting with people at the bar (as I am apt to do, from time to time).  Regardless of what it might sound like, I meet some rather interesting folks (who are fellow road-warriors like me) and I strike-up some even more interesting conversations. On this particular occasion, I…

    Don’t Be Arrogant; You Need Your Customers More Than They Need You.

    Leveraging Technology in Pharma

    ByJoseph Paris April 23, 2018February 18, 2026

    I am not easily impressed by technology.  In fact, I am often a contrarian and don’t easily buy into the hype of the “next great thing”.  It’s probably a combination of factors.
