The awards programme recognises pharmaceutical companies that are the 'best' in the industry for innovation, operations, digitalisation, supply chain and social impact

The International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering (ISPE) recently announced category winners for its 2024 Facility of the Year Awards (FOYA). 

FOYA is a global awards programme recognising innovation and creativity in manufacturing facilities that serve the pharmaceutical industry. 

The award-winning projects were selected from a pool of impressive submission finalists and span various categories. FOYA category winners can be recognised for innovation, operations, digitalisation, supply chain, and social impact.

"This year's FOYA category winners are redefining facility design, construction, qualification and operability standards – an essential step as the pharmaceutical industry continues to invest in discovery, development and licensure of innovative medicines," said Thomas Hartman, President and CEO of ISPE. 

Announced at the 2024 ISPE Europe Annual Conference, category winners are recognised by the FOYA Programme for their excellence in facility design, construction and operations – setting the standard for pharmaceutical facilities of the future.
