OS 2026: Biggest, best ever

Last week, APC hosted its largest-ever Owner Summit in Austin, Texas. How large was it, you ask? 390 people — that’s a 51% increase from last year! Here’s a quick recap of what was accomplished last weekend.

By the numbers

• 230 attendees
• 25 speakers across 20 sessions (check out Scott’s column above for a highlight reel)
• 60 exhibiting companies with 160 exhibit personnel
• 43 golfers who raised more than $20,000 for APC’s OneFund
• 38 CompPAC contributors who raised more than $31,000 for CompPAC — and more than $15,000 for our special guest, House Energy & Commerce Committee member Rep. Craig Goldman (TX)

Matt Johnson elected 2027 APC vice president

The APC Board of Directors also met, and they elected Matt Johnson of Englewood, Colo. as Board Vice President for 2027. Under APC bylaws, he will become board chair in three years.

Matt Johnson has over two decades of leadership and expertise in the compounding pharmacy industry, and he is currently President and CEO of Pharma Source Direct. Matt was initially appointed to the APC Board of Directors in April 2024.

Exhibitor Bingo winners

You’ve been asking for it for years, and we were finally able to pull it off — APC’s first-ever Owner Summit exhibitor bingo game. Attendees who visited at least 30 of the exhibitor booths were entered into a drawing to win a free registration for CCH 2026 or Owner Summit 2027, and those ambitious enough to visit all 60 exhibitor booths were entered into a drawing for a grand prize of a free registration to both CCH 2026 and Owner Summit 2027.

Here are this year’s three winners:

• CCH 2026 registration: John Tran, Pharmco USA, Torrance, Calif.
• Owner Summit 2027 registration: Anna Rashidi, Innovative Compounding Pharmacy, Folsom, Calif.
• Grand Prize (free registration to CCH 2026 and Owner Summit 2027): Peter Koshland, Koshland Pharm, San Francisco, Calif.
