ASIA – UBM Live claims to be experiencing a successful return for its portfolio of Japanese pharma events at the Tokyo Big Sight (TBS) exhibition centre in Japan.
The organiser said a record attendance of 14,473 attendees came to its TBS pharma events,representing a 17 per cent increase over 2010. These events include CPhI Japan for pharmaceutical ingredients, ICSE Japan for outsourcing solutions, P-MEC Japan for pharma machinery and technology, the new Pharmatec for drug packaging and delivery technology and the BioPh Pavilion for the biotechnology sector. These events were on 21-23March.
“The 2012 Japanese pharma portfolio had a positive outcome that drew greatly from the synergies of the co-located events,” said UBM Live regional director Andrew Pert.
Pert went on to point out the events complement each other by offering direct access to distinct sectors within the pharma industry, creating “one of the most international annual trade shows held in Japan”.
“In 2012 there were 498 exhibitors from across the globe,” he said. “Two-hundred and eighty-nine of these were international companies from more than 30 countries, which served as the inspiration to host national pavilions for attendees to easily locate new business partners in countries including China, India, Korea, the UK, Italy, and Latvia.
“We expect this international trend to continue with more than 40 countries set to be represented when the Japanese Pharma Portfolio of events returns to Tokyo in 2013.”
The full Japanese pharma event portfolio returns to TBS on 24-26 April 2013.
