The EDQM conference “Certified for success: using the CEP Procedure to elevate quality and drive trust”, held on 23 and 24 September 2025, brought together over 125 participants (representing 25 countries) from across the pharmaceutical and chemical industries, regulatory agencies and academia to explore the latest developments in the CEP Procedure.
The CEP Procedure plays a vital role in protecting public health, ensuring regulatory efficiency and promoting global harmonisation, helping to build and maintain trust in the pharmaceutical field worldwide. This event provided a deep dive into the evolving regulatory landscape and what the future holds for the CEP.
