CPHI Milan 2026 enters its final day after three days of meetings across the global pharmaceutical value chain. Companies and representatives from the BioArk ecosystem are on site, contributing expertise from Valais in Life Sciences development, scale-up, industrialisation and manufacturing.

From active pharmaceutical ingredients and bioproduction to contract manufacturing, packaging, drug delivery and equipment, CPHI brings a large part of the pharmaceutical value chain together in one place.

The 2026 edition, held from 6 to 8 October at Fiera Milano, also introduces dedicated areas for AI and technology, cold-chain logistics, contamination control and labelling. The scale of the event is significant: the previous edition brought together 62,000 participants, more than 2,900 exhibiting companies and professionals from over 166 countries. CPHI Milan provides a valuable setting for direct discussions between companies, suppliers, manufacturing partners and ecosystem representatives.
