Keynote Speaker: Allison Massari, “The Fire Within”

Keynote speaker, Allison Massari, knows that health innovators have the power to transform lives. When Allison was 32, she survived a devastating car accident and sustained severe second and third degree burns on over 50% of her body. Her recovery and eventual healing was achieved through a combination of determination, hope, and courage, and involved years of pain medications, antibiotics, and other necessary medications to support her in building the triumphant life she lives today.

Allison’s heroic story of overcoming extreme odds and finding remarkable success in her personal and professional life could not have happened without the help of the dedicated professionals in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries. With vision, clarity, and compassion, Allison shares the potent life lessons that she learned on each step of her path after she was severely burned in a fire and faced seemingly insurmountable odds.
