Pharmacovigilance
This is a meeting to welcome sales people to the company sales network and give them information about their duties and pharmacovigilance. A welcoming meeting doesn't sound right to me nor does a reception meeting. Any suggestions please?

Orientation meeting
I think this could work here.
The Orientation Meeting
The free orientation meeting offers you the opportunity to experience more about Town & Country first-hand. We will get to know each other, answer your questions and speak to you about possible future cooperation. You will learn much more about us, and in turn we will learn more about you. By the end of the second day, the foundation for a successful working relationship will be laid.
What the orientation meeting offers you:
http://www.franchise-partnership.com/orientation-meeting.htm...
Town & Country Haus and your prospects for success
The possibility of cooperation
An overview of the extensive range of services offered by Town & Country
Viewing of various Town & Country houses
Personal discussions with the Town & Country management team

: I've been to so many of these. They are always called "orientations" in the U.S.
