About the Event

Ireland is a global leader in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

But its next frontier is bigger: Building an innovation ecosystem to rival its industrial strength.

Home to 9 of the top 10 pharma companies, 50+ FDA-approved sites, and exports exceeding €116 billion annually, Ireland is a powerhouse built on world-class manufacturing, operational reliability, and global trust.

Now the question is no longer “Can Ireland deliver?”

It is:

Can Ireland innovate at the same scale it manufactures?

Biologics World Ireland 2026 is where the industry answers that together.

This 2-day, senior-level forum unites biopharma innovators, operations leaders, regulators, researchers, and technology partners to confront Ireland’s most pressing biologics and CGT challenges - not in theory, but in practice.

Across 2 focused streams:

  • Biomanufacturing Excellence
  • Cell & Gene Therapy Manufacturing

we address the real bottlenecks holding Ireland back from becoming a truly end-to-end biologics and advanced therapies hub.

Key Themes for 2026

Ireland’s transition from manufacturing stronghold to full-spectrum innovation requires coordinated action across:

  • R&D & Early-Stage Innovation: Where does Ireland’s pipeline begin and how can it compete globally?
  • Skills, Talent, & Workforce Retention: The industry is growing faster than the talent can keep up. What’s the plan?
  • Digital Maturity & GMP Integration: From siloed systems to smart manufacturing; what does high-visibility GMP really look like?
  • Future-Ready Supply Chains: Ensuring resilience, localisation, and reliability in an era of global uncertainty
  • Scaling CGT Manufacturing in Ireland: What infrastructure, regulation, and collaboration models are needed for CGT to take root?
  • Academic–Industry Collaboration: Ireland’s universities and innovation centres are crucial; how do we strengthen the bridge?

Why Attend?

Biologics World Ireland isn’t a typical partnering event; it is Ireland’s operational and strategic command centre - place for leaders to compare real-world performance, roadblocks, and solutions.

You will gain:

  • Candid, practitioner-led discussions - not marketing slides
  • Actionable frameworks to improve manufacturing reliability and innovation maturity
  • A clearer vision of Ireland’s future role in global biologics and CGT
  • A network of senior leaders shaping that future together

This is where Ireland’s biologics and advanced therapies roadmap is written.

Who You’ll Meet

  • Biomanufacturing, MSAT, Tech Ops & Digital GMP leaders
  • CGT manufacturing and process development teams
  • CMC, QA/QC, Regulatory Affairs specialists
  • Researchers & translational innovators
  • Government bodies & funding agencies
  • Technology & solution providers accelerating Ireland’s next wave
