- Venue: Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, CA, USA

- Organizer: Informa Markets
Who should attend
MD&M West is a sourcing show, and that is exactly why quality and regulatory people belong there. Every material swap, component substitution and new contract manufacturer negotiated on that floor becomes a change control, a supplier audit and, often enough, a regulatory filing decision. Walking it with your engineering colleagues means the compliance questions get asked before the purchase order — not after the design freeze.
The week before, an hour down the coast, the 2027 ISPE Facilities of the Future Conference covers the pharma-manufacturing equivalent — and the events directory lists everything we have verified.

Medical device design and manufacturing: components, materials, precision engineering, automation, packaging and contract manufacturing services, with a conference programme running alongside the supplier exhibition.

Yes, on the supplier-control and design-control side. The components, materials and contract partners sourced on this floor all land in someone's design history file, supplier qualification programme and submission — meeting the vendors in person shortens those conversations.
