India Pharma Week Debuts In Delhi

Key stakeholders and professionals of the pharma industry congregated to network and celebrate the industry under one giant umbrella through avant-garde events

INDIA PHARMA Week, a week-long event including premier shows such as CPhI and P- MEC India, was held recently at India Expo Centre, Greater Noida, Delhi-NCR. It organised more than seven events and activities pertaining to business, knowledge, leadership, innovation, recognition and networking in the field of pharma. It kick-started with a Pharma Leaders Golf in Mumbai. Later, a series of interesting and engaging activities such as Pharma Connect Congress, Women in Pharma, India Pharma Awards, Networking Evening, the CPhI & P-MEC India Exhibition and a closed-door CEO Roundtable, among others, were held in Greater Noida.

It was attended by key stakeholders and professionals of the pharma industry congregated to network and celebrate the industry under one giant umbrella through avant-garde events. Reportedly, this year's edition witnessed participation from more than 1,600 exhibitors from over 42 countries. Special pavilions by Pharmaceuticals Export Promotion Council of India (Pharmexcil), China Chamber of Commerce for Import & Export of Medicines & Health Products (CCCMHPIE) and China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) were also part of the expo. The organisers expect the shift to Delhi-NCR region will further foster a comprehensive pharma ecosystem.

Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, UBM India, in an earlier interview with Express Pharma had said, “Given the stupendous growth of the show, and the infrastructural and travel logistics hitch in Mumbai, we felt it would be extremely beneficial to have a bigger, consolidated venue that offered the entire spectacle under one umbrella. Besides, the Delhi-NCR region has become the heart of India for holding some of the biggest events in the country.

Being in close geographical proximity to policy makers, consulates and government bodies, the show is poised to enhance the industry’s community building efforts.”
