ISPE D/A/CH Affiliate Evening Events taking place in parallel with the 2026 ISPE Pharma 4.0™ and Biopharma Conference. These curated evening formats are designed to strengthen community engagement, facilitate meaningful networking, and create additional value around the core conference program.
The first evening will feature an informal Icebreaker Event, including a bar and aperitif hosted at a location close to the conference venue. This format is intentionally designed to bring together arriving participants, early attendees, and site tour-visitors in a relaxed setting, enabling them to connect, exchange ideas, and build relationships ahead of the official conference start. The event lowers the barrier for first interactions and supports integration of new participants into the ISPE community. In addition, we plan to have a reflection on the visited side and have the SMEs present for further exchange.
The second evening will host a larger, more structured Networking Dinner on Thursday, bringing together conference attendees, speakers, sponsors, and community members. This dinner will serve as a key social anchor, fostering deeper connections across companies, roles, and geographies in a more dedicated and engaging environment.
Together, these events extend the conference experience beyond the daytime program, creating valuable touchpoints for informal exchange, peer learning, and relationship-building. They align strongly with ISPE’s commitment to fostering community, enabling knowledge exchange, and creating inclusive opportunities for engagement across all career levels.
