Antibiotics are vital to modern medicine, yet Europe’s production capacity is at risk, with most API suppliers based in China. This dependency threatens security, competitiveness, and public health. This session will explore restoring Europe’s antibiotic capacity, reducing reliance, and strengthening sovereignty - key not only for health policy, but for supply security, competitiveness, and geopolitical stability.
