Welcome to the WCBP Symposium

The annual WCBP Symposium brings together industry, regulatory, and academic professionals to discuss the role of current and emerging CMC analytical technology among evolving US and international regulatory perspectives. The theme for WCBP 2026 is "Integrating Science, Regulations, and Digitalization for Global Patient-Centered Care". The three-day program consists of plenary and parallel sessions with speaker presentations, panel discussions, workshops, roundtables, virtual posters, an exhibit hall, and technical seminars hosted by our exhibitor partners that give you the opportunity to engage with fellow attendees in meaningful discussions on the role of current and emerging CMC analytical technology. 

The Symposium will be offered in-person as well as live-streamed to a virtual audience. Extend your in-person stay and maximize your knowledge-sharing experience by attending the back-to-back CMC Strategy Forum North America on January 26, 2026.
