Hear from senior executives on major company news
The DCAT Member Company Announcement Forum is a much-anticipated program at DCAT Week in which senior executives from DCAT Member Companies make major news announcements to DCAT Week’s influential attendees and the industry press.

Exclusive to DCAT Member Companies, the DCAT Member Company Announcement Forum is a valuable platform to highlight key news developments from your company occurring in 2026* in the following areas:

  • Mergers and acquisitions (M&A), including post-M&A integration;
  • Significant and critical capital expansions for manufacturing and development capacity across the bio/pharmaceutical manufacturing value chain—raw materials, chemicals, processing aids, excipients, and other inputs; drug substances (small molecules & biologics); drug products; and packaging; and
  • Other key corporate strategic developments occurring in 2025 and beyond.

*Note: News announcements must be from January 2026 forward. If an announcement was first made prior to January 2026, updated information occurring in 2026 or beyond must be included. In the case of M&A, this can include deal closing or post-M&A integration occurring in 2026 or beyond, and for expansions, updated timelines for completion and launch occurring in 2026 or beyond.

Who Can Apply & Deadlines
The Member Company Announcement Forum is open to all Registered DCAT Member Companies: bio/pharma companies, CDMOs/CMOs, and other suppliers—large, mid-sized, and small companies. Applications are due Monday February 2, 2026. Further information, including the online applications, may be found here. 

Applications are reviewed by the DCAT Member Company Announcement Forum Oversight Committee, which selects those companies receiving podium time at DCAT Week based on the following criteria: news priority, criticality of the news development, and interest to DCAT Member Companies.
