CPhI Worldwide, organized by Informa Markets, announced on Jan. 15, 2021 that the CPhI event, which was originally scheduled for Aug. 31–Sept. 2, 2021 at the Fiera Milano in Milan, Italy, will be rescheduled for Nov. 9–11, 2021 at the same venue. The decision was made based on the hope that COVID-19 vaccine programs are fully advanced and that international travel is permitted.
“At CPhI Worldwide, we understand the importance of meeting face-to-face with your peers and potential business partners,” the CPhI Worldwide Team said in a press release. “The new dates will also hopefully ensure COVID-19 vaccination programs are well advanced, creating more certainty around international travel and ensuring the event is as successful as possible, delivering you the same opportunities and the experience you’ve come to expect from CPhI Worldwide.
