EAPB 2025

The East Africa Pharma & Biotech Conference (EAPB) convenes leading policymakers, industry stakeholders, development partners, and scientific experts committed to advancing regional manufacturing capacity for health products. The 2025 edition focused on aligning investment, regulatory harmonization, supply chain resilience, and innovation ecosystems to accelerate self-reliance in essential medicines, diagnostics, and vaccines.

The program brought together more than 150 participants from across Africa, global institutions, financing bodies, academia, and technology partners. Discussions emphasized actionable pathways to strengthen local production through improved market shaping, streamlined procurement, aggregated demand, human capital development, and sustainable financing models.

The conference highlighted practical narratives from manufacturers, insights from global health policymakers, and forward-looking strategies for value chain development. By convening cross sector leadership, EAPB continues to shape the region’s trajectory toward a competitive and resilient pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing landscape.
