by | Mar 11, 2025

The Sunshine Act Compliance Dialogue, held on February 26th in Milan, was a dynamic gathering of compliance, legal, and regulatory professionals from across industries. Sponsored by Baker McKenzie and Vector Health, the event served as a platform for industry leaders to exchange ideas, discuss challenges, and explore best practices in Italian Sunshine Reporting.

For those who couldn’t attend in person due to work commitments, our online expert-led sessions were greatly received, ensuring no one missed out on key discussions. The event sparked insightful dialogue, with attendees posing critical compliance questions and engaging in real-world strategy discussions.
