DCAT Week began in 1890 under the auspices of the New York Chamber of Commerce and is now hosted annually by the DCAT Association, maintaining a legacy of over 130 years. According to the company, more than 90% of participants hold senior positions with decision-making authority, making it a focused platform for discussing partnerships between companies. Last year, over 10,000 people from more than 700 companies across 50 countries worldwide participated, and this year, approximately 12,000 attendees are expected.

Samsung Biologics has attended every year since 2016, except for 2020 when the event was not held due to COVID-19. At this event, Samsung Biologics will participate as a sponsor of key programs alongside global big pharma companies. In particular, CEO John Rim will attend in person to promote Samsung Biologics' Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) competitiveness and business vision, and to network with key figures in the global pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

On the morning of the first day of the event, the 20th, Kevin Sharp, Executive Director of Samsung Biologics, has been invited as a speaker at the member company presentation forum to present the company's mid- to long-term vision under the theme of 'Second Bio Campus Expansion Plan.'

Meanwhile, Samsung Biologics will officially open a sales office in New Jersey, where major big pharma companies are located, on the 19th (local time). The company plans to create a super-gap competitiveness in sales capabilities by strengthening its global network to enhance order-winning competitiveness and securing customer communication channels.
