This event brings together pharmaceutical and biotech professionals, CDMOs, and technology providers to discuss the development and manufacturing of highly potent active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs). This event shares presentations focused on key topics such as containment technologies, process scale-up, regulatory compliance, and occupational safety in HPAPI manufacturing.

Purpose for attendees:
- Enable CDMOs to present their technical capabilities and facilities for handling potent compounds
- Facilitate partnership discussions and outsourcing opportunities in drug development and manufacturing
- Individuals working for a pharma or biotech company with an active therapeutic pipeline
- Industry consultants and capital investment firms
