The European Pharmacists Forum (EPF), sponsored by Walgreens Boots Alliance, was founded in 1999 and its mission is to promote and actively support the profession of pharmacy in various European countries. The EPF is now well established in ten countries (Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey and the UK) and enjoys growing recognition among pharmacists across Europe, through its seminars held in different European locations each quarter, the EPF website and its quarterly newsletter, which is distributed to all independent pharmacists in European countries where Walgreens Boots Alliance is present.  The EPF supports a European and horizontal approach to the pharmacy profession, to bring pharmacists together to discuss ideas and share key messages.
