In 2025, regulators across the U.S., EU, China, and Japan introduced major framework overhauls, along with global harmonization bodies like ICH, whose guidelines shape regulatory expectations worldwide. Many of these updates were published on dispersed agency websites or quietly revised, making them easy to miss without continuous monitoring and increasing compliance risks for RA and QA teams.

Early signals suggest the pace won’t slow down in 2026.

Redica’s Regulatory Intelligence experts for a look at:

• The most significant regulatory shifts of 2025 (and why they mattered)
• Where regulatory activity surged most (geographic hotspots + agency movement)
• Top themes shaping policy and enforcement expectations
• What to expect in 2026 and how to prepare

We’ll also review how Redica’s Regulatory Intelligence process helps teams continuously monitor global change, detect relevant updates early, and align stakeholders with shared, explainable intelligence. In 2025 alone, Redica published 11,633 regulatory documents, representing a very active regulatory landscape and increased scope of coverage.
