Conference: Pharmaceutical Manufacturing 2004

London, UK – Pharmaceutical Manufacturing 2004, the third annual conference focusing exclusively on manufacturing excellence for the pharmaceutical industry, takes place September 29–30 in Frankfurt, Germany.

In the past few years the climate within the industry has become significantly more competitive and less predictable, notes event organizer Worldwide Business Research. Increasing pressure on manufacturing operations to cut costs, reduce inventory, increase productivity and decrease time to market has left pharmaceutical manufacturers searching for innovative methods to solve these challenges. Pharmaceutical Manufacturing 2004 offers the tools and solutions needed to meet these challenges, and the opportunity to network with experts from the world’s leading manufacturers. Topics to be discussed include sales and operations planning; personnel; training and motivation; lean manufacturing; six sigma; packaging; inventory management; and fast track projects. Speakers include Roberto Rubbi, Director Pharmaceutical Manufacturing
