This week on Making It In Manufacturing, Thomas McMann sat down with Sarah Griffin, Event Manager for CPHI Americas. In this episode, Sarah covers:

• Why CPHI Americas is creating a more focused, content-led experience built around meaningful industry conversations and strategic partnerships.

• How the event has evolved to meet growing demand for deeper engagement between pharmaceutical companies, CDMOs, technology providers, regulators, and investors.

• Why CDMOs are moving from outsourced service providers to long-term strategic partners, with greater transparency, collaboration, and shared risk.

• How pharmaceutical companies are balancing supply chain resilience, regionalisation, outsourcing strategies, and operational agility in a changing global market.

• What will define the next phase of growth for pharmaceutical services, including advanced therapies, AI integration, talent development, and partnership-driven business models.
