Dr Frank Wienen and Dr Ulrich Korell have been exploring the CPHI exhibition grounds in Shanghai since yesterday morning.

“How’s it going?” the team back at the office asks.

Frank Wienen reports directly from Shanghai: “We are especially impressed by the superb organisation and the international atmosphere: more than 3,500 exhibitors, busy activity at every stand and a lively, professional and open exchange among experts from all over the world. We have already made initial contacts with potential new customers; today our schedule is filled with meetings with existing clients. One thing is clear – PharmaKorell will certainly be back next year.”
