The OPMA provides a forum for education and the exchange of ideas in pharmaceutical marketing, including governmental laws, industry trends and interaction with other associations. The OPMA was instituted in 1966 (as the Pharmaceutical Marketing Club of Ontario-PMCO), out of a need for pharmaceutical executives and suppliers to discuss issues affecting the pharmaceutical industry in Canada. It has provided an informal forum to network and an opportunity to socialize with peers over the last three decades. The calibre of the speakers, at our monthly meetings, speaks to the OPMA's commitment to dealing with a range of issues. Please see our Past Meetings for an example of our wide diversity of speakers. The OPMA provides a true commitment to bringing you the issues that affect the industry today.
