About ISPE
My ISPE
ISPE is an individual membership Society for professionals involved in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and related products.
Who We Are
ISPE was founded in 1980 by a handful of people who believed the pharmaceutical industry needed an organization that would deal with practical applications of science and technology for technical professionals. Their aim was to improve efficiency and best practices. The much-needed forum provided by ISPE began with a Membership of engineers in North America. In time, ISPE Membership expanded beyond engineering to include a broad representation from pharmaceutical professionals, including a vital link with quality control and assurance personnel.
ISPE, which now has 22,000 Members in 90 countries worldwide, continues to work to keep industry professionals informed of the latest technological and regulatory trends that are occurring in the marketplace. ISPE is committed to the advancement of the educational and technical efficiency of its members through forums for the exchange of ideas and practical experience.
Who We Serve and What We Do
ISPE's Core Members are pharmaceutical professionals who use expert knowledge to create high-quality, cost-effective GMP solutions.
Our Core Purpose is to prepare these professionals to lead global change and innovation in pharmaceutical manufacturing sciences and technology.
ISPE is dedicated to creating first-to-market solutions that help our Members and their employers succeed in their work. This means helping them solve the challenges they face today and preparing for the ones that are expected in the future. In addition, our products and services exist to help the pharmaceutical manufacturing profession as a whole ensure the safety of the world’s supply of medicines.
