This Congress is built to change that — in one day.
An honest, working agenda on validation, paper batch records and IT-OT silos — measured against GAMP 5 Ed. 2, FDA CSA, EU Annex 11 & 22, and India's DPDPA.
Twelve of India's top-20 manufacturers run at least one Gujarat plant. By 2026, none of them can validate the way they did in 2018.
GAMP 5 Ed.2. FDA CSA. EU Annex 11 & 22. ISPE GAMP AI Guide. DSCSA. India's DPDPA. These are no longer “future” discussions—they are live frameworks with direct implications for how Gujarat's plants build, validate, and defend their digital systems.
Every Head of Manufacturing IT in India is now being asked the same question by their board: “Can we go paperless without breaking the inspection?”
This Congress is built to answer that question—not with consultants, but with the practitioners who are currently migrating India's largest plants from paper to digital.
