Global experts to attend ‘Pakistan Pharma Summit’ today
Pakistan will host a high-profile gathering of international pharmaceutical experts, regulators, and industry leaders at the 8th Pakistan Pharma Summit and the 4th Pharma Export Summit & Awards (PESA 2025) on Tuesday (today). The meeting takes place at a time when Pakistan’s pharmaceutical exports have reached a record USD 457 million in fiscal year 2025, marking a 34 percent growth — the highest in two decades. Against this backdrop, the summit will explore how the industry can build resilience, expand into regulated markets, and leverage innovation to strengthen its global standing. Sessions will feature global voices such as Jim Harris (Canada) on artificial intelligence in drug discovery, Dr Zakieh Al-Kurdi (USP, EMEA) on regulatory policy, Prof Khalid Ahmad Sheikh (UCL, UK) on building a culture of quality, and Geoff Tsen, PhD (USP, Greater China) on resilience and standards.
