Strong fit for the AI-in-pharma speaking slot. A plausible fit for training and programme design, but confirm capacity and internal support first: the documented training programmes were collaborations, not one-person deliveries.

Brief
A pharmaceutical manufacturer is putting together an AI-in-pharma event — either a session at an industry conference or an internal learning day — and wants one speaker to cover AI across discovery, clinical trials, manufacturing and patient-centred care, with an optional second engagement teaching students or new hires how the industry works.
What to check before committing
Shilpy Singh's posts include no slides, recording, transcript or participant feedback. Ask for a deck, session outline and two references from previous hosts before booking.
No fee, session length, audience size or availability commitment is published. Agree these directly with Shilpy Singh.
The Gandhi Fellow programmes were run in collaboration between Piramal Pharma and the Piramal Foundation, with HR leadership support, site head approval and department heads contributing time across all three days. For a comparable programme, secure internal sign-off and named function leads before fixing dates.
The AI material is framed for professional and student audiences rather than as a technical demonstration. If the brief requires model-level or implementation-level detail, test the fit with a short sample session first.
Why it fits
There is a delivered example of exactly this kind of session: an expert talk on AI in the pharmaceutical industry for pharmaceutical sciences students at Chameli Devi Group of Institutions. It covered drug discovery, clinical trials, manufacturing and patient-centric care, plus predictive analysis and personalised medicine.
The audience level is documented too. Shilpy Singh joined a virtual expert panel at World Congress 2026 on the global impact and challenges of AI in pharma and healthcare for sustainability, alongside global speakers, academics and industry leaders. They took the slot at 5 a.m. while travelling for work.
The manufacturing and sustainability side is covered, not just AI. The Chemical Engineering Society at IIT Madras invited Piramal Pharma to ChemPlus 25 to speak on transforming the CDMO ecosystem, manufacturing innovation and sustainable practices, with patient centricity, ESG and customer centricity in the mix.
Programme design is documented as well as speaking. Shilpy Singh designed and coordinated a three-day induction for Gandhi Fellows at the Pithampur site in April 2025. It covered project management, technology transfer, HR, manufacturing, packaging operations, quality, supply chain, operational excellence, engineering, warehouse and quality control, plus mock interviews, guided discussion and certificates. A second post describes hosting the 18th cohort on a site visit.
