Comprising a potent mix of technology exhibits, educational sessions and networking opportunities, the third annual Interphex® Puerto Rico conference and exhibition, scheduled for Feb. 16 and 17 at the Puerto Rico Convention Center in San Juan, is organized to provide the right prescription for those seeking information on the pharmaceutical industry. Last year, the show attracted more than 2,000 visitors from around the island and approximately 175 exhibitors, reports show organizer Reed Exhibitions. This year's event will feature more than 300 exhibitors showcasing the latest equipment, materials and technologies for the processing, packaging and distribution of pharmaceutical products. This 2006 show will also be co-located with Supply Chain & Logistics Puerto Rico, in its debut year, and Medical Device Puerto Rico.
The two-day event also offers a full agenda of conference sessions, with tracks that focus on regulatory issues, manufacturing technologies, facilities, biotechnology and packaging. Several sessions are also open to all badge holders. These include Thursday's keynote session, presented by Gary Dykstra, regional food and drug director, Southeast Region, U.S. Food & Drug Administration; a free exhibitor/supplier forum on Friday titled "Establishing Your Business in Puerto Rico"; and Friday's keynote presentation, "21st Century Manufacturing: Managing Product Risk, Reducing Operational Costs and Increasing Supply Chain Responsiveness," presented by Jim Bradburn, principal consultant, IBM Business Consulting Services.
