About FlyPharma Conferences:

The first FlyPharma Conference was launched in September 2015 at London Heathrow, pooling Samedan's broad readership across the pharmaceutical and logistics/cargo industries. One title in particular complements the conference's theme well and provided the basis of the FlyPharma concept: Pharmaceutical Manufacturing and Packing Sourcer (PMPS).

PMPS offers extensive pharmaceutical experience from a manufacturing, packaging and logistics perspective, and particularly relevant are its cargo-related readers - forwarders, handlers, airports and carriers. Other supporting titles from the Samedan and PMGroup portfolio include Pharmafocus, PharmaTimes and PME, all of which offer an audience of pharma industry professionals with a diverse range of backgrounds and provide both thought-led features and news-driven energy. Together, these publications support FlyPharma as media partners and provide a strong base for opening up communication between two sectors (pharma and cargo) that depend on each other for success.

In 2018, FlyPharma expanded to three regional events: Asia, Europe and US. Each conference was a success and was met with extremely positive feedback from the industry. FlyPharma Europe took place again in 2019 in Copenhagen, in its largest event to date. After a break in response to the challenges of COVID-19, FlyPharma Europe returned in 2022 and took place in Leipzig, Germany on 20-21 September, followed by FlyPharma Europe 2023 in Vienna, Austria on 10-11 October. All events cover global pharma supply chain challenges and collaborative opportunities, but each focuses on how that particular region's unique characteristics both impact and fit within a worldwide marketplace.

About headline sponsor, Vienna AirportCity:

The Vienna AirportCity is a business accumulation at Vienna International Airport consisting of 250 companies active in a variety of industries, such as cargo and logistics, aviation, startup communities, consultants, smart city services and more. All have grown heavily in importance during the last 10 years.
Within the Vienna AirportCity, there is a large cargo community (Vienna AirportCity Cargo World) handling any sort of air freight with outstanding quality. There are cooled areas, protected areas, and warehousing… and there is a brand new 1,600m2 Pharma Handling Centre with landside and airside access.

Due to the extensive scope of destinations reachable from Vienna, the Vienna AirportCity has also become an important conference and meeting location. The Conference Centre, called 'Vienna AirportCity Space', was built to be a melting pot for innovation and exchange in the Vienna AirportCity. As demand has grown, the venue is now a place to be for companies from all over the region. The reason is the feel of curiosity vibrating through the entire area.
