Pharma does not need more AI ideas. It needs technology that actually works in the real world.
For businesses, real impact happens when you have a perfect mix of strategy, data, and adoption. That means you have a clear strategy with trusted and connected data. You also implement AI solutions for genuine business use, and your teams adopt these tools into their daily workflows.
That is what AI-readiness looks like in pharma and life sciences. And that is exactly what we will be bringing to Reuters Events Pharma 2026 in Barcelona.
Here is everything you need to know, whether you are attending in Barcelona or just keeping tabs on the latest insights in pharma.
What is Lingaro doing at Reuters Pharma 2026?
This year, we are attending as a Gold Sponsor. We've prepared a full agenda designed to move pharma and life sciences leaders from conversation to action.
-
On-site booth: Pharma and life science leaders can speak with us at Booth 505. We will walk visitors through how we help organizations build data and AI capabilities that deliver measurable business value, from commercial analytics to regulatory-compliant data infrastructure.
- Live demo: Attendees can see our solutions in action. We will showcase our data and AI platforms that address pharma's real challenges, from planning to execution to adoption.
- AI hackathon with a prize worth $10,000: We are also running a live hackathon on Day 1 of the conference. The winning team will receive a free, exclusive Lingaro hackathon for their business, valued at $10,000 USD.
- A surprise for pharma and life sciences leaders: We have something in store specifically for attendees. Keep an eye out at the Lingaro booth. If you are not in Barcelona, stay tuned on our channels after the event.
What is the Lingaro AI Hackathon about?
Product launches in pharma are among the most complex and high-stakes operations in any industry. They involve multiple teams, channels, compliance requirements, and stakeholder groups, all moving at once.

"Orchestrating Seamless Product Launches - Accelerated by AI" will be led by Ivanka Vankova (Life Sciences Lead, Commercial Analytics) and Krystian Jablonski (Sales Director, Data & AI Strategic Solutions). It's a practical hackathon designed to address the core challenge of pharma leaders:
“How can agentic AI coordinate people, processes, and channels to deliver a seamless, personalized, and compliant omnichannel product launch from end to end?”
Teams attending the conference will work through their business challenges in real time. They will also design actual, no-code AI solutions with the help of our experts. It is a practical exercise grounded in one of the most pressing problems in pharma commercialization today.
The winning team also walks away with a free and exclusive Lingaro hackathon for their own organization, valued at $10,000.
Not attending? The challenge itself is worth thinking about. If your organization is planning a product launch and is unsure how AI fits into that process, this is a conversation worth having with us.
