This invitation-only summit is designed for decision-makers in pharmaceutical manufacturing, contract manufacturing, external supply, and pharma supply chain management.

Key Themes
The conference agenda is organised around three core themes that address the critical challenges and opportunities in pharmaceutical outsourcing:
Manufacturing:
Discussions will focus on investing in agility and resilience within contract manufacturing, effective partner selection and management of CDMOs, aligning capacity and risk strategies, streamlining scale-up and technology transfers, enhancing collaboration for API manufacturing, and implementing relationship management strategies that strengthen the pharmaceutical network.
External Quality:
Sessions will delve into setting a quality vision aligned with regulatory compliance, selecting tools to manage quality programs, building a culture centered on compliance and quality, managing external systems to ensure product standards, auditing for cGMP adherence, addressing data integrity issues, and enhancing sterility testing processes to meet regulatory requirements.
Supply Chain Management:
Attendees will explore leveraging artificial intelligence to improve vendor relationship management, understanding recent shifts in procurement, managing global demand and inventory, optimising logistics and distribution, mitigating supply risks to prevent product shortages, improving supply chain traceability through serialisation, and utilising automation and real-time data for operational excellence.
