DCAT Week is officially underway, and CDMO World is on the ground in New York City for one of the most important gatherings in the pharmaceutical industry. With leaders from across the global pharma and CDMO landscape in attendance, the week is already shaping up to be full of meaningful conversations, new connections, and forward-thinking insights.

Day one has gotten off to a strong start. A major highlight of the day was the successful first interview in our new CDMO Leadership Videocasts Interviews Series, featuring Bend Biosciences. The conversation set a strong tone for the series, offering valuable perspectives and insights from industry leadership. We’re excited to continue building on this momentum with more interviews throughout the week.

Another standout moment has been the opportunity to bring members of the CDMO World team together in one place. With team members working from different locations across the country, being able to connect face-to-face in the heart of the Big Apple has been both energizing and productive. It’s a valuable chance to align, share ideas, and strengthen the collaboration that drives everything we do.

As the week continues, the team is looking forward to building new relationships, deepening existing partnerships, and continuing conversations that move the industry forward. With several days still ahead, DCAT Week 2026 is just getting started! We are excited for what’s to come.
