If you’re a pharmacy owner, you’re always thinking with two brains: a pharmacist’s and a business owner’s. When you’re wearing your business hat, you need to be thinking long-term — about the strategic decisions that can make or break your business.

That’s why we’ve got a great keynote for you at the 2025 Owner Summit, March 14–16 in Destin, Fla.: “Compounding Problems: Strategic Decision-Making for Small Business Owners” featuring Dean West, founder and president of Association Laboratory.

Healthcare is changing faster than ever, and that makes it hard to think ahead, what with legal issues, regulators, supply chains, and market dynamics to navigate. Uncertainty and risk is the name of the game. Tactics will only get you so far — you need to think strategically.

This session will give compounding pharmacy owners and managers the tools they need to make better, more strategic decisions for their compounding businesses — identifying the obstacles unique to the industry and unique to each business. Then the most important part: You’ll learn how to apply what you’ve learned to guide your pharmacy’s strategic direction with confidence.

“Compounding Problems: Strategic Decision-Making for Small Business Owners” is just one of the great sessions at APC’s 2025 Owner Summit. See the full lineup and register today at a4pc.org/os.
