TUV USA will be participating in the Regulatory Affairs Professionals Society Convergence Virtually
According to their website, The RAPS is “the largest global organization of and for those involved with the regulation of healthcare and related products, including medical devices, pharmaceuticals, biologics, and nutritional products.”
Founded in 1976, their mission is to improve and sustain a competent worldwide regulatory workforce that advocates good regulatory practice and policy to progress and advance public health.
One of RAPS’ goals is to actively support professionals in
the regulatory field. Therefore, when the COVID-19 pandemic quickly made it
impossible for such a large gathering of people to congregate, the organizers
took a different approach from previous years. This year, all the convergence
activities, including the educational sessions and booths, are entirely
virtual. Instead of shaking hands and speaking face to face, visitors and
professionals will be conversing via video chat and the educational programs will
all be broadcast. Exhibitors have virtual booths and a video link that anyone
can log into to talk with a representative. Pamphlets and flyers will be
replaced with PDFs and short videos. RAPS has developed a great deal
to overcome the stress of transitioning such a large convention to a virtual
arena.
RAPS starts Sunday September 13, and runs through Wednesday September 16, 2020.
