Hosted by Bionow, the 2026 Pharma Manufacturing conference returns to bring together industry leaders, academic innovators and regulatory experts, all united by a shared commitment to shape the future of pharma manufacturing in the North.
Through thought-provoking talks, panel discussions and high-impact networking, attendees will explore both the obstacles and the opportunities ahead.
Why attend Pharma Manufacturing?
The North of England continues to be a powerhouse in pharma manufacturing, accounting for 21% of the UK's total life sciences workforce, and underpinning a life-sciences economy worth over £13.6 billion. The region remains critical to the UK's life-sciences ambition, combining a strong industrial base with world-class research, manufacturing infrastructure, and growing investment.
Pharma Manufacturing is a unique opportunity to connect with leading voices and influencers, from international pharma companies and cutting-edge CDMOs, to academic researchers and regulators.
