From September 23-24, pharmaceutical executives are meeting in Philadelphia to discuss current trends, strategic insights, and best practices in manufacturing, outsourcing, capacity management, quality assurance, quality control, regulatory compliance, operational excellence, supply chain, and logistics.
The process of bringing a new drug to market can be lengthy and complex, requiring significant R&D, access to specialized manufacturing equipment, and the expertise to navigate technical and regulatory concerns. With rising manufacturing costs and restricted in-house capabilities, companies are increasingly relying on external manufacturing experts to provide fast and cost-effective drug development.
From September 23-24, the American Pharma Outsourcing Summit will address key industry trends and challenges in pharmaceutical outsourcing, bringing together top industry executives to discuss current trends, strategic insights, and best practices in manufacturing, outsourcing, capacity management, quality assurance, quality control, regulatory compliance, operational excellence, supply chain, and logistics. Attendees will hear first-hand case studies and walk away with strategic insights on how to reduce time to market, optimize manufacturing quality, ensure success in project execution, and leverage new technologies. Leaders discussing external manufacturing and quality at this year’s meeting in Philadelphia include:
Ratna Shekhar, Head, External Site Operations, Takeda
“Ensuring Operational Excellence in Your Outsourced Operations”
