What our members say about us

“As a student aspiring to enter the pharmaceutical industry, I am always seeking ways to cultivate my personal network and learn how I can do better. The leaders of the workshop detailed various strategies on how to effectively express one’s interests, guide a conversation and demonstrate appreciation when networking. As a participant, I particularly valued the opportunity to network with other attendees and put what was learned during the workshop into practice. It was a highly informative workshop session and I look forward to attending future events hosted by ABTiP.”

"ABTiP provides a collective voice on the opportunities, as well as the barriers and unconscious biases that need to be broken down to ensure we are attracting, developing, and advancing Black talent to be fully represented and succeed in our industry.”

“The ABTiP event was excellent. Not only did I get the opportunity to connect with great people, but also practical and helpful tips on how to network effectively. Now networking is off my list of dreaded things that I have to do and is now among the things that I want to do. This was time well spent. I am certainly looking forward to the next event.”

“I learned that there is great, diverse talent available in the market if you are willing to invest time to look for it. Historic/traditional barriers exist for many segments of the population for career advancement and if you use traditional approaches to finding talent, you are not going to be as successful as you could be.”
