“My compliments to the team that made this ExcipientFest a real success. It was the first time for me to join and I must say I was very much impressed. The seminar was perfectly organized. The focus on Excipients makes the show really dedicated. The topics presented were very well received by the participants/audience. The location was excellent. The biggest players in excipients were there. Congratulations!”
ExcipientFest


“ExcipientFest was absolutely one of the best conferences I have ever been to due to the location, quality of the attendees, organizations exhibiting at the expo and the seminars. From a JRS perspective, we really appreciated all the contacts that we were able to make. This conference really provided me with a great opportunity to market JRS as well as have some fun on a personal level with the folks.”

“I spoke with many people there who were also in complete awe of the organization and the team behind ExcipientFest 2004. The team found the time to personally help each exhibitor, which you don’t normally see at other trade shows. JRS will do it’s best to continue to be a major sponsor of ExcipientFest events in the future.”

“On behalf of Roquette I would like to congratulate your team for an EXCELLENT ExcipientFest Event. It was a mini AAPS, very professional from a Roquette point of view. We were able to "connect the business dots”.
