2nd Annual Visual Inspection in Parenterals Summit 2026

Visual Inspection in Parenterals
Event Details

Conference Overview

The Visual Inspection in Parenterals Summit is a premier event that brings together experts from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors to explore best practices, technologies and advancements in the visual inspection of parenteral products.

In 2026 the industry is moving beyond simple detection toward a holistic life-cycle approach. This conference will cover a wide range of topics, from the latest innovations in Deep Learning and Generative AI to the integration of visual inspection into broader Contamination Control Strategies (CCS). Attendees will gain insights into cutting-edge technologies, evolving GMP Annex 1 requirements and clinical case studies aimed at enhancing the accuracy of inspections while ensuring patient safety.

We Will Talk About

  • Regulatory & CCS: Aligning visual inspection with Annex 1 and global compendial requirements.
  • The Digital Shift: Moving from manual processes to AI-driven and paperless systems.
  • Management over Detection: Holistic strategies for particulate matter and characterization.
  • Clinical Relevance: Determining the patient safety risks of different defect categories.
  • Operational Excellence: Reducing false rejects and improving yield through advanced validation.
  • Complex Products: Inspection challenges for autoinjectors, cell therapies and BFS.

Who Is It For?

The event covers key areas of product quality, regulatory compliance and manufacturing processes. The following departments would benefit from the insights shared at the conference:

● Visual Inspection
● Quality Control (QC)
● Quality Assurance (QA)
● Sterility Assurance
● Manufacturing/Production
● Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
● Engineering and Validation
● Risk Management
● Clinical Affairs
