Communities

One of the main reasons for joining TOPRA is to network with other regulatory affairs professionals from all over the world. Our communities provide our members with opportunities to exchange news, views and ideas and are segmented by region (International Networks or INs) and topic (Special Interest Networks or SPINs).  

You can access them by logging in below or through our TOPRA Engage+ app.

International Networks (INs)

Our International Networks (INs) support regulatory affairs professionals living and working in a country or region by providing a dedicated forum for discussion and sharing knowledge and information.

The aim of the INs is to:

  • Develop a local TOPRA networking arm in individual countries
  • Support TOPRA members living and working in a country and increase the membership community based there
  • Work cooperatively with other not-for-profit or government organisations and relevant academic institutions
  • Current INs


    This IN group supports TOPRA members who are living and working in Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
