Thank you to our speakers, sponsors, and delegates who joined us in Boston for the 2nd Viral Vector Process Development & Manufacturing Summit! If you are interested in the 2024 event, please get in touch at info@hansonwade.com

Integrate & Intensify Your Up- & Downstream Process Development & Enhance Functional Product Quality to Streamline Scale-Up & Reduce COGS

Create Qualitative, Accessible Treatments for Patients

Following Ring Therapeutics injection of $86.5m to enhance novel viral vector capabilities, and BMS’s viral vector facility coming online, the viral vector market is forecasted to reach $12.8bn – not only in cell and gene therapies but also viral-vector-based vaccines and immunotherapies.

With the FDA’s fast-evolving quality assessment and lack of standard guidance, and the continued challenge of viral vector recovery yield and purity, the 2nd Viral Vector Process Development & Manufacturing Summit was your must-attend meeting in 2024 to help answer your burning questions to enhance process intensification capabilities while meeting regulatory agencies’ expectations.

In collaboration with Sarepta, Ultragenyx, Affinia Therapeutics, and UCB, we united 80+ pioneering viral vector up- and downstream process engineers, MSAT, CMC to tackle these challenges together. This was your definitive community to seek help from industry pioneers to expedite scale-up, tech transfer, and speed-to-clinic. Your peers joined to explore:

Meet and evaluate solution providers and viral vector CDMOs, including Lonza, Chromatan, Teknova, and Genezen, to forge long-term relationships, ensuring tech transfer readiness

It was worth clearing 2 days out of your office and to join this summit to leverage novel platform technologies such as continuous processing to improve viral vector manufacturing!
