Dates and venue

  • Exhibition: 21-23 April 2027
  • Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, East Halls, Tokyo, Japan
  • Hours: 10:00-17:00 each day, per the organizer
  • Organizer: Informa Markets

Who should attend

Like CPHI's other regional editions, CPHI Japan is not a regulatory conference — it is where the Asia-Pacific pharma supply chain does business. If your remit touches supplier qualification, API and excipient sourcing, CDMO selection or GMP status for Japanese or regional manufacturing partners, it is a concentrated way to cover ground. Regulatory and quality professionals typically attend alongside procurement and technical operations colleagues rather than instead of them.

For the European equivalent, CPHI Milan 2026 runs that October, and the full events directory lists every CPHI edition and supply-chain event we have verified.
