The DCAT Global Summit 2026
Bio/pharma companies and their suppliers are facing key challenges and opportunities as digital transformation, including artificial intelligence (AI), emerging technologies, and ever-changing global supply lines reshape the bio/pharmaceutical value chain.
The DCAT Global Summit 2026: The Future of Bio/Pharma: Mastering the Supply Chain, Digitalization & Global Shifts, which will be held 10-ll June 2026, in Barcelona, Sitges will bring together industry and thought leaders to share practical insights and first-hand experience into how to adapt now and be future-ready to these competitive forces. The Summit will explore the current and future use of AI and other digital technologies in accelerating timelines in R&D, improving manufacturing, and enhancing supply-chain performance and how the rising digital bar will impact the way business is done between bio/pharma companies and their suppliers, including in reskilling for digitalization. The Summit will also examine what is top-of-mind for the industry: strengthening supply-chain resilience amid geopolitical and trade uncertainty, strategies for de-risking supply chains, and the financial and market impact of shifting global supply lines.
