The dramatic expansion of Chinas pharma industry is illustrated by the exponential growth experienced
by UBMs portfolio of China events. The inaugural CPhI China in 2001 attracted under 200, mainly
domestic exhibitors and 8000 visitors, while this year, the combined events portfolio will host 1,597
Chinese exhibitors and 100 international exhibitors from countries including India, the US, Germany and
the UK.
 
 Within the last 50 years life expectancy in China has almost doubled, commented Eliane van Doorn, 
UBM International Medias Group Director for Pharma events. With the burgeoning middle-class
population aging, rapidly urbanising and adopting Western lifestyles, the Chinese market presents
diverse, exciting opportunities for both domestic and international businesses 
 
Now in its tenth year, CPhI China was joined by ICSE China in 2005, P-MEC China in 2006 and BioPh
China in 2010. The events benefit from the valuable support of the China Chamber of Commerce for
Import and Export of Medicines and Health Products (CCCMHPIE) and are organised in conjunction with
UBM International Medias sister organisation, UBM Sinoexpo. 
 
UBM International Medias CPhI family of events for the pharma ingredients and services sector includes
Worldwide (Europe  October); Japan (April); South America (August) and India (December). Free on-
line registration is available at: www.cphi-china.com
 and www.pmec-china.com
