8th specialist meeting for producing pharmacies

The specialist meeting for producing pharmacies

Focus topic: Annex 1 of the GMP guidelines and the Contamination Control Strategy

Just 1 year after the last event, the 8th specialist meeting for producing pharmacies will take place on May 22, 2025 in Vienna. It offers a platform for exchanging views on current developments and challenges in sterile production, cytostatic preparation and contamination control. Take the opportunity to network with colleagues and experts from the industry.

The focus of the technical program in 2025 will once again be on the GMP Guideline Annex 1 and the Contamination Control Strategy. In addition to experts from the industry, we have once again been able to attract representatives of the Austrian health authorities(Austrian Agency for Health and Food Safety GmbH) as speakers. They will talk about the authority's view on the implementation of the GMP Guideline Annex 1 almost 2 years after it came into force.

The supporting program includes an exhibition in the foyer. Find out about innovative products, solutions and services from selected comprei partners.

Thursday, May 22, 2025, from 2:00 p.m.
