When in Montreal…A Travel Guide for ICPE Attendees

At UBC, we take pride in product navigation.  We have the experience and services needed to help guide a product through clinical development to commercialization and on to demonstrating post-launch value and safety. And, just as we provide guidance for your product, let us provide a little guidance on what to see and do in Montreal, host city of the upcoming ICPE conference and home base to our Value Demonstration team. We look forward to seeing you here in Montreal.  We’ll be presenting on recent research studies, and we’ll be at booth #4. Keep in mind, we are research experts!  So, as our welcome gift to you, here’s a list of our favorite things to see and do.
