As pharmaceutical manufacturers advance toward a fully digital ecosystem, Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) play a pivotal role in enabling smart factories. By leveraging the vast amount of data generated on the shop floor, MES facilitates real-time decision-making, enhances operational efficiency, and ensures compliance. In this session, we will explore how MES integrates into a holistic digital strategy, including the application of generative AI to support manufacturing operations. From predictive analytics to automated workflows, discover how MES-driven insights can optimize production, reduce downtime, and pave the way for the future of pharmaceutical manufacturing. In this session you will learn how to:

• Integrate MES into a smart factory framework to enhance operational efficiency.
• Leverage data generated by MES to drive predictive analytics and proactive decision-making.
• Explore use cases of generative AI in manufacturing, from process optimization to quality control.
• Build a connected digital ecosystem that ensures agility, compliance, and scalability.
