IMA Active at the 2018 ISPE Europe Annual Conference

IMA Active is pleased to take part in the 2018 ISPE Europe Annual Conference, which will be held at the Sheraton Roma Hotel & Conference Center, Rome (Italy), 20-21 March 2018.

The 2018 ISPE Europe Annual Conference will focus on what Industry 4.0 concepts mean in the highly regulated pharmaceutical world. 

Industry 4.0 is becoming a global term. The scope of Industry 4.0 is broad and it could be the next industrial revolution.

With intelligent application of Industry 4.0 concepts into a Pharma 4.0 world, new opportunities to be faster, more agile, and responsive will be addressed. Factories of the future will have to adapt to these concepts in order to stay competitive and survive.

Digitalisation is the trigger to automation and end-to-end integration of computerised systems, and that makes Data Integrity an absolute must in this new world.

Mass serialisation is being implemented in many countries to ensure a constant source in safe and consistent supply chain.

Factories of the Future, Pharma 4.0, Data Integrity, and Mass Serialisation set the scene for the 2018 ISPE Europe Annual Conference. These influences and many more will be examined and discussed at this two-day conference in Rome, Italy.
