As China's rapidly expanding and diversifying pharmaceutical market is set to find a place in the list of world's top ten pharma market, UBM International Media, a leading organiser of pharmaceutical and food ingredient trade shows, in its efforts to gather global pharma and its allied players to this booming market to explore emerging business opportunities would hold CPhI China 2009 at Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC), China from June 23 to 25.
"With a 5 per cent growth in attendance, CPhI China is proving to be the dominant force as East Asia's largest annual pharmaceutical networking event. The diverse range of visitors and exhibitors highlight how much the global pharmaceutical community value China's capabilities. The event would address individuals from manufacturing and purchasing of fine chemicals and pharmaceuticals to solution providers' need for latest innovations and networking opportunities," said the organisers of the event.
"CPhI China is attracting more and more visitors each year. They include specialists from general management, marketing and sales, purchasing, production, quality control, engineering and research and development. On average, nearly 70 per cent of all visitors have real purchasing power," they added referring to the popularity the event is gaining.
As in the previous editions of the show, this year too events like International Contract Services Expo (ICSE) and Pharmaceutical Machinery and Equipment Convention (P-MEC) would be held concurrently with CPhI China 2009.
Dedicated to contract services within the pharmaceutical manufacturing process, ICSE is expected to provide visitors an opportunity to network with highly qualified outsourcing specialists from around the world, while P-MEC is learnt to help the participants explore the Chinese market for processing and packaging.
"Showcasing cutting-edge pharmaceutical machinery and equipment and advancements in chemical analysis, testing instruments, filtration systems, extraction lines, automated packaging and drug-filling equipment, P-MEC China continues to go from strength to strength," according to the CPhI China organisers.
This year, CPhI China would also feature CPhI China 2009 International Forum in its bid to focus on current issues that affect the worldwide pharmaceutical market.
"Organised jointly by UBMi, UBMSinoexpo and eChinaChem, CPhI China 2009 International Forum will introduce a series of activities that cater to supply-demand communication between Chinese and foreign companies, market trends and technology hot topics. This is the perfect platform and time to exchange professional knowledge," noted the event organisers.
Though there are enough ingredients to make the event a huge success, the main attraction of CPhI China 2009 would be dedicated pavilions like China, India, Italy, Japan Bulk Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association, Korea, Technology Licensing Organisation and UK.
"Both diverse and exciting, the Chinese pharmaceutical industry continues to expand providing the perfect environment for CPhI China 2009. All the more, the event would open new doors of opportunities to forge exciting partnerships to enhance your business. Also, this event will provide unrivalled access to the pharmaceutical industry and a platform to launch new products and increase your market knowledge," said the organisers of CPhI China.
