President’s Message
by Erik Westover
Happy New Year! 2012 was a good year for the
ISPE PNW Chapter. We had some successful
repeats of our standard events like the
Georgetown Brewery Tour and our Annual Golf
Tournament at Willows Run. We also introduced
some new events like a Poker Themed Vendor
night and hosted the Affiliate from Japan. We
look to build on the successful events and try
other formats as we move into 2013. For
starters, we will be having a Sustainability
Commuter Conference that will focus on
sustainability and LEED as it relates to the Life
Science and the Annual Georgetown Brewery
Tour (one of our most popular events so register
early!).
The ISPE board also wants more involvement
from our members. We want to hear from you.
For starters, we need your help to fill up our
event calendar for the year. I want to encourage
you to submit YOUR ideas for events. We are
looking for facility tours, panel discussions,
speaking and presentations related to the
biotechnology, pharmaceutical and medical device
sectors that provide opportunities for sharing
information, education and networking. Please
submit your ideas to our Association Office.
We are also publishing this newsletter monthly via
e-mail in order to keep everyone informed about
what is going on. If you have published a white
paper or have some content that may interest the
members please submit them for consideration by
the Board. This is a great way to education
others and publish your work. The Board will
review and consider all submissions.
Finally, we are looking for help planning,
organizing and facilitating our functions
throughout the year. We have space for
volunteers to support the board members within
a number of committees including involvement in
the following: Membership, Young Professional
Students and Programs.
I look forward to hearing from you all and seeing
you all at our events in 2013!
