The ISPE Europe Annual Conference is the European flagship of the pharmaceutical engineering profession — where manufacturing, quality and regulatory guidance meet on this side of the Atlantic. The 2027 edition runs in Prague, Czechia, with a virtual option for remote attendees.

Dates and format

  • Conference: 10-12 May 2027
  • Location: Prague, Czechia (venue not yet stated by the organizer)

Who should attend

The audience is the European CMC-and-quality community: engineers and quality professionals responsible for facilities, tech transfer and production systems, and the regulatory specialists who fold that work into submissions and inspections. If EMA expectations, Annex 1 or ATMP manufacturing sit on your desk, this is the May 2027 meeting to weigh — and the virtual track lowers the cost of sampling it.

Later the same month, RAPS Euro Convergence 2027 convenes in Dublin for the regulatory-affairs side of the profession — the events directory has every option we have verified.
