Dear Colleague,
The PDA and the Scientific Program Planning Committee cordially invite you to join us in person in Gothenburg, Sweden from 17-18 October 2023 for our 20th edition of the PDA Universe of Pre-Filled Syringes and Injection Devices Conference!
Since its inception, this conference has been a cornerstone for our industry to learn, share, debate, and collaborate, to face our common challenges, and to drive forward innovation in injectable drug delivery. In 2004, the conference made its humble debut in Europe with a focus on pre-filled syringes and an attendance of fewer than 100 people. Since then, the conference has expanded to the United States, grown tremendously in scope and attendance, and enabled the creation of various task forces that serve important missions in our industry. After 20 years, we remain reflective, proud of our purpose, and grateful for our collective achievements. Today, the PDA Universe of Pre-Filled Syringes and Injection Devices Conference is the perfect platform to present breakthrough innovations, help foster knowledge, and contribute to the wider pharmaceutical and medical device industries' shared purpose to improve global health.
This year, we are excited to return to the beautiful city of Gothenburg, Sweden, known for its culinary scene, friendly people, and seaside charm. In 2022, Gothenburg was ranked first by the Global Destination Sustainability Index for the seventh year in a row, making it not only a well-placed and culturally engaging location for our event but also a responsible one.
Consistent with our strong history, we are creating another exciting program focused on the most impactful and current topics of interest, such as the delivery of novel therapeutics, digital health, and sustainability. Our venue offers you the invaluable opportunity to expand your knowledge and identify new technologies, approaches, and business opportunities, and the program is designed to provide ample time for discovery in our vast expo hall and for networking with leading key opinion leaders, industry peers, service providers, and vendors.
We welcome you with open arms to join us, reconnect with your PDA family, and contribute to the world's leading event on this topic.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Sincerely,
The Co-Chairs
