When the American Pharmacists Association (APhA)’s annual event was transitioned to a virtual experience, they knew they needed to find innovative ways to invite their community to join the conversation. By using real user-generated video content from members, staff, sponsors, and industry thought-leaders, APhA delivered a high-value and incredibly unique virtual experience.
