9. The Environmental Footprint is Much Smaller with Virtual vs. In-Person Meetings The shift towards virtual meetings is not only a matter of convenience or cost but also a significant environmental decision. National and international in-person meetings often involve extensive travel that contributes to large carbon footprints. By incorporating virtual meetings, organizations can drastically cut down emissions associated with air travel and ground transportation. As the environmental movement gains momentum, and the pharmaceutical industry begins to embrace more sustainable practices, the preference for virtual participation continues to grow. Participants appreciate the option to engage from anywhere without the environmental cost of travel, and it is likely that such expectations will only increase in the future.
