The 2026 Pharma and Medical Device Forum (GMP Forum) will be held in Melbourne, Australia, on 16–17 March 2026.
This two-day life sciences forum is designed for professionals across the pharmaceutical, medical device, biotech, laboratory sciences, cleanroom quality management, STEM research, and computer sciences sectors.
Each year, the Pharma & Device Forum explores the latest advances across the life sciences sector, including key regulatory updates to help you stay current in a rapidly evolving environment. The event also includes a sponsored networking and social session on Monday afternoon, designed to foster collaboration, idea-sharing, and meaningful connections with peers and thought leaders.
This forum is an ideal learning and development opportunity for professionals involved in drug development, pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing, quality control, regulatory compliance, sterile production, validation, engineering, and laboratory sciences, including product testing. It is also highly relevant for those working in compounding pharmacies, supply chain and logistics management, packaging, and healthtech innovation.
The program is equally valuable for researchers, post-graduate and PhD supervisors, architects, cleanroom engineers/architects, and professionals engaged in audits, pharmacovigilance, life sciences sustainability initiatives, and computerised systems.
The 2026 Pharma & Device Forum will feature presentations on radiopharmaceuticals, mRNA manufacturing technologies, cleanroom and laboratory excellence, contamination control strategies, validation compliance, temperature mapping, the use of AI in quality assurance and governance, and strengthening Australia’s export capabilities for medicines and medical devices.
