Connect to Frankfurt - Five reasons to tune in

Get a jump-start on your CPHI Frankfurt experience with exclusive access to our online event platform. 

One of the main challenges attendees have found with previous editions of the flagship CPHI show is that there was simply not enough time to see everything. To ensure that you’re extracting all the benefits the event has to offer, Connect to Frankfurt will launch a full month before the in-person exhibition takes place.  

Connect to Frankfurt has been designed to help you better prepare for your CPHI Frankfurt experience by finding new and existing partners, arranging virtual or on-site meetings and creating your event schedule.  

Still not convinced? Here’s five reasons to tune in.  

#1 Get a head-start on industry trends  

Curious about the trends shaping the future of pharma, but unsure where to start?  

During Connect to Frankfurt, leading market intelligence firms such as IQVIA, GlobalData, Accenture and Deloitte will share their views on key emerging trends in a series of easily digestible, 10-minute webinars. Use these bitesize videos as a springboard before diving into the longer-form content also on offer.   

#2 Connect with content that speaks to you  

For those of us who make a beeline for the content agenda at CPHI events, we have good news – Connect to Frankfurt is offering more than 30 on-demand sessions that can be accessed from 28 September, all the way through to November 18 – giving you plenty of time to watch at your own pace.  

Brush up on the latest products, solutions, trends and technologies with topics that span outsourcing, manufacturing, digitalisation and drug delivery. Stream these on-demand sessions at a time that suits you and get to grips with key market developments before you even set foot in Frankfurt.  

#3 Preview the Pharma Awards shortlist 

One of the highlights of CPHI Frankfurt will undoubtedly be the Pharma Awards, our annual celebration of industry excellence. Though the winners won’t be announced until the in-person event on November 1, we will be revealing which companies have been shortlisted for the prestigious accolade during Connect to Frankfurt. Log in to find out which innovations are in the running this year.  

#4 Hear from pharma start-ups 

While it’s generally Big Pharma that hits the headlines, there’s a significant amount of innovation happening in pharma start-ups. During Connect to Frankfurt, a hand-picked selection of companies will share their experiences of taking a product from ideation to commercialisation through select webinars and podcast episodes.  

Thinking of launching your own company? These sessions will shed light on the peaks and valleys of running a start-up. Tune in to hear directly from entrepreneurs about product design, funding, regulatory considerations and the role of events in launching your business.  

#5 Leverage the event platform 

This year our event platform opens a full month before CPHI Frankfurt, meaning attendees have even more time to network, plan meetings, browse products and source partners. Use our platform to make valuable connections across the pharma value chain, weeks before you arrive in Frankfurt.
