Pharmapack Europe is a two-day exhibition and conference dedicated to pharmaceutical packaging and drug delivery. It takes place on 1 and 2 February 2017 at Paris Expo Porte de Versailles, Paris.
2017 marks the event’s 20th successful year. It has grown in size, profile and popularity from a bi-annual event to a major annual show that attracts 5,100+ visitors and over 380 exhibitors from more than 70 countries around the world.
Attendees and delegates range from CEOs and CMCs to pharmacists and business execs, working in R&D and drug development to purchasing, engineering, marketing, logistics and business development.
Innovation is at the heart of Pharmapack. An innovation gallery showcases selected industry innovations from exhibitors, while innovation tours guided by industry experts take visitors on a tour to exhibitors’ stands.
The newest addition for 2017, the Pharmapack Start-up Hub, is designed to let innovative young pharma firms benefit from valuable networking and learning opportunities at a price that suits their budget. This dedicated area on the show floor gives them a unique platform to showcase their ideas, meet potential customers, partners and investors and forge new relationships that will help them develop for years to come.
The Pharmapack Awards recognise new products that are set to shape the future of the industry, in two categories. The exhibitor innovations category is dedicated to Pharmapack exhibitors who have developed a new product. For those who are not exhibiting, there is the health product category. This latter category distinguishes the packaging of new health products introduced to the market or the improvement of the packaging of an existing health product (for human or veterinary use).
Both awards recognise products that have contributed to the proper use of medication, increased patient/user safety and compliance or represent a significant step towards sustainable packaging.
Pharmapack is an opportunity to sharpen up technical and industry knowledge. Its content programme comprises two days of conferences, a one-day serialisation, track and trace symposium, a day of workshops and a learning lab that hosts short, sharp presentations on key topics from exhibitors throughout the two show days.
