Global Pharma Logistics Summit 2025

The global order is shifting. So is the global healthcare supply chain. Globalisation and free trade dominated global economics for decades by leveraging low-cost production hubs. Protectionist trade policies are, however, threatening this. Will it fundamentally change existing pharma supply chains?

It is in this context that we are organising the eighth edition of our annual one-day conference and networking event Global Pharma Logistics Summit.

As the global pharma landscape evolves, India must move beyond being a low-cost volume player to become a leader. The call now is for resilience, quality, compliance, and value creation. GPLS 2025 explores how India can transition from passive participation to proactive leadership. This is the moment to not only supply the world but help shape how the world is supplied.

Against the clock: The hidden risks in pharma–logistics coordination for ATMPs

Read More

In the world of Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products, every shipment is a race against time. Patient-specific therapies demand ultra-precise handling, cryogenic stability, and flawless cross-border compliance. Yet despite the stakes, pharma manufacturers and logistics providers often operate in fragmented systems with limited visibility. This disconnect can lead to delays, costly wastage, and, ultimately, compromised patient outcomes. In this session, we’ll unpack the operational and regulatory complexities that make ATMP logistics so high-risk, reveal where the coordination gaps occur, and explore what it takes to deliver these life-saving treatments against the clock.

TESTIMONIALS

I think the most exciting thing about pharma logistics is how it sort of trickles down into patients in the end. Right? How it actually affects lives, how it sort of impacts live people’s lives in a positive manner is something that is super exciting to me personally.

Rishabh Gupta Redwing

I think what excites me most about pharma logistics is the type of challenges that we face here, which is unlike any other industry or function. Very engaging event I would say, especially because I’ve met people from across different functions, service providers, from distribution categories, from, you know, various categories. So I think that that was really, engaging.

Rashmi Iyer Merck Life Science

GPLS gives you an opportunity to meet a lot of people, a lot of shippers, a lot of service providers, and, you know, to be into business, you need the clients as well as you need the service provider. So it’s a great platform where, you know, you can meet both basically and, make use of those conversations and, make use of those connections and get better at it.

Preeti Saluja Aeris Dynamics

I think that this event is a plethora of information coming together, a culmination of knowledge, is something very exciting about this summit.
