Trends and Challenges in Pharmaceutical Manufacturing, published by PMMI, explores how OEMs and End Users are responding to a rapidly evolving pharma landscape. Based on quantitative surveys, in-depth interviews, and secondary research conducted in late 2025, the research highlights key critical focus areas such as packaging innovation and sustainability, regulatory reporting and digitization, equipment automation and connectivity, and more. The research surfaces where priorities align, where gaps remain, and how emerging technologies such as RFID, wireless sensors, and digital tools are being integrated and explores shifts toward pre-filled and blister formats.
