Over the more than 10 years of its lifetime, the Forum has covered a whole range of topics of specific relevance to the Pharma packaging sector: 

• Good Manufacturing Practice
• Security and anti-counterfeiting
• Patient compliance
• Pharmaceutical industry and healthcare trends
• Board standardisation
• Braille standardisation
• Digital printing, etc. 

The Pharma Forum was instrumental in creating a European Guideline for the application of Braille onto medicine packaging for the visually impaired. In the meantime this Guideline has been adopted as the basis for a CEN standard and progress is being made to also turn this into a global ISO standard.

The ECMA Pharma Forum is chaired by Roel van Eerd (Van Eerd, NL) and supported by Mike Turner (ECMA).
