CPHI Korea Seoul

CPhI Korea is an internationally leading trade fair for the pharmaceutical industry, held annually since 2014 at the renowned COEX Convention and Exhibition Center in the heart of Seoul. The abbreviation “CPhI” stands for “Chemical and Pharmaceutical International Exhibition”, reflecting both the global orientation and the significance of this event as part of an internationally recognized trade fair series. The organizer is Informa Markets, a leading trading division of Informa PLC, renowned for its extensive industry expertise.

CPhI Korea focuses on innovations and the latest developments in pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), finished medicines, biopharmaceuticals, as well as health and nutritional products. Both international and leading Korean companies showcase advanced solutions in laboratory technology, automation, digitalization, and process optimization—from research and development to GMP-compliant production. This provides visitors with a comprehensive overview of the entire industry value chain, from raw materials and intermediates to finished dosage forms and specialized services such as contract development, manufacturing, and analysis.

What sets CPhI Korea apart is the combination of pharmaceutical and biotechnological expertise with South Korea’s rapid progress in the healthcare sector. The event serves as a bridge between pharmaceuticals, dietary supplements, and functional foods, granting access to one of Asia’s most dynamic markets. Professionals gain insights into South Korea’s biotechnology innovation pipeline, can compare cutting-edge laboratory technologies, and establish contacts with international CDMOs, biotech companies, and established pharmaceutical manufacturers.

The event is primarily aimed at professionals, decision-makers, and purchasers from the chemical-pharmaceutical industry. As a central platform for knowledge transfer, networking, and business development, CPhI Korea reflects South Korea’s commitment and future ambitions in the field of life sciences.

As part of the global CPhI exhibition series, CPhI Korea ensures high quality standards and attracts an international audience of exhibitors and visitors. The modern COEX Center impresses with its excellent infrastructure, central location in the vibrant Gangnam district, and easy accessibility by public transport or car. CPhI Korea thus not only offers valuable insights into the pharmaceutical and biotechnological developments of Asia, but also provides ideal conditions for successful business relationships and sustainable exchange.
