Improving adherence to medication via smarter, patient-centric pharmaceutical packaging and extracting further value from existing medicines and delivery devices are two of the latest key strategies aimed at reducing waste and protecting the bottom line, according to experts at the recent Pharmapack Europe 2020. The event played host a record 411 exhibiting companies, 5366 attendees and 325 delegates.<\/p>\n
Europe\u2019s leading pharmaceutical packaging and drug delivery event \u2013 which took place at the Paris Expo, Porte de Versailles, February 5-6 \u2013 featured many innovations as well as novel drug delivery solutions, with \u2018waste management\u2019, \u201cconnectivity\u201d and \u201cpatient centricity\u201d being some the key themes throughout this year\u2019s edition. A who\u2019s who of pharma packaging and drug device innovators exhibited from Aptar, SHL, Stevanato Group and BD to Nemera and West Pharmaceutical Services \u2013 with several major new technologies and partnerships announced. But some of the most promising innovations were presented by emerging companies in the Start-up hub \u2013 with technologies featured from AI development platforms through miniaturized\/non-intrusive sensors, to vial\/ampule combination devices ad smart packaging.<\/p>\n
Gamification transforming engagement of therapies for patients and connected devices were also discussed during the conference sessions. For the experts, pharma now having access to technology to connect boxes, vials and devices to networks, the next decade is not about the technology challenges. But will instead explore how the industry safeguards data, and ultimately, who is its custodian. Blockchain is another industry buzzword of the last year, but experts at Pharmapack point to the improved accountability it could provide in pharma supply as its most immediate use, rather than in securing patient data.<\/p>\n
