The 10th CESPT
In the late 1980s, the initiative for Central European scientific meetings dealing with pharmaceutical
technology arose as a result of the long-standing collaboration between the departments for pharmaceutical technology of the faculties of pharmacy in Trieste, Italy and Ljubljana, Slovenia. In 1993, when
the Slovenian Pharmaceutical Society became a member of the European Federation for Pharmaceutical Sciences (EUFEPS), all conditions were fulfilled to follow the recommendations of EUFEPS assembly
dedicated to the organization of regional thematic scientific meetings in Europe. As a result, the 1st Central European Symposium on Pharmaceutical Technology (CESPT) was held in October 1995 in Bled,
Slovenia, under the patronage of EUFEPS. The subsequent events were successfully organized twice
in Portorož, in Vienna (Austria), Ljubljana, Siofok (Hungary), then again in Ljubljana, followed by Graz
(Austria) and in 2012 in Dubrovnik (Croatia). With time, the CESPT evolved into a well established platform for promotion of new scientific, professional and business connections and a recognizable event
regularly attracting over 200 interested professionals from the industry, academia and regulatory bodies
worldwide and in particular from Central and Eastern Europe. Following tradition, the CESPT 2014 will
provide an outstanding and exclusive forum for sharing new perceptions from academic, industrial and
regulatory aspects of pharmaceutical technology, to form networks with members of the pharmaceutical community and to discuss the cutting-edge research findings and experiences. We will gather again
in Portorož, Slovenia and celebrate the10th yet jubilee CESPT – as another excellent event of the series.
About Portorož
The poetically named Portorož, or Port of Roses, is the undisputed king of Slovenia’s coastal tourism.
Although it lacks the look of the Venetian old towns that can be found in the adjacent Piran, its numerous
hotels, restaurants, conference centres, spas and casinos make it a popular destination. Portorož has
been a tourist destination as far back as the 13th century, when it developed a niche as a health resort,
and towards the end of the 19th century it became widely known for the healing properties of its mud
and salt water baths. This reputation has persisted till today, with the city currently home to no less than
six different wellness spas and resorts.
Aims and scopes
The 10th CESPT in 2014 will offer a perfect opportunity to continue and extend, the aims of this series.
The focus of the meeting will be oriented towards drug delivery for specific populations (children, elderly, patients with kidney and liver failure, patients debilitated by stroke, pregnant and nursing women,
polymorbid patients) with the aim to propose optimal medication in terms of pharmaceutical dosage
forms, modes of administration and dosage regimen. For this purpose different kinds of expertise are
needed, from chemical, physicochemical, technological and pharmacokinetic aspects to preclinical and
clinical evaluations to translate with all possible speed basic laboratory concepts into advanced clinical
settings. The challenges generated by new concepts and achievements in pharmaceutical technology
will be addressed by the eminent researchers who will attend the symposium from both academia and
industry. The anticipated lively and productive discussions among the symposium participants should
achieve the major goal of the symposium, namely to provide answers to the above-named questions.
We look forward to welcoming you in Portorož, Slovenia!

Satellite symposium
The Satellite Symposium of CESPT 2014 jointed with Open Day Symposium of the 8th Pharmaceutical Solid State Research Cluster (PSSRC, www.pssrc.org) will take place in Grand Hotel Bernardin,
Portorož on Thursday, 18th of September 2014.
The Pharmaceutical Solid State Research Cluster (PSSRC) includes 11 academic teams, located at the
Universities of Cambridge (United Kingdom), Copenhagen (Denmark), Düsseldorf (Germany), Ghent
(Belgium), Graz (Austria), Helsinki (Finland), Leuven (Belgium), Lille (France), Lisbon (Portugal), Ljubljana
(Slovenia) and Otago (New Zealand) (www.pssrc.org). The aim of this consortium is to overcome current
limitations in the investigation of solid pharmaceutical dosage forms. Every year, the cluster members meet
during two and a half days and one of these days is an “Open Day”.
It is open to the public and mainly consists of oral presentation of senior cluster members. One important
aim of this day is to present the research activity of the PSSRC and to initiate a fruitful collaboration of
universities with industry and regulatory bodies.
Focus will be on Functionality related characteristics of materials for controlled release. Well
known invited speakers will address all the relevant aspects of APIs and excipients used in the solid dosage formulation which are linked to successful formulation strategies and manufacturing processes. In
addition to the invited talks given by the leading researchers in the field, a foreseen industrial exhibition
will allow an update on the advanced characterization techniques available nowadays.
