Fireside Chat 1: Getting C&GT to the people who need them

With rapid innovations in the cell and gene therapy arena, how do we integrate breakthrough treatments into routine practice to ensure seamless access for the people living with potentially treatable conditions? How will improved access benefit both people receiving treatments and the wider community?

Fireside Chat 2: The Future of the ATMP CDMO Market: Challenges and Opportunities

In this interview, we explore the current and future trends of the advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMP) CDMO (Contract Development and Manufacturing) market. We discuss the impact of COVID-19, the basis of competition, the drivers of cost reduction, and the best practices for developing ATMPs at scale.

Speakers Include:

Robert Panting | General Manager ATMP | Rentschler Biopharma

Interviewed By:

Matthew Durdy | Chief Executive Officer | Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult

Session 1

10:15 – 11.05

The right place at the right time

Manufacturing ATMPs requires advanced skills and expensive equipment. Does the UK system of science parks and innovation hubs support access to facilities and expertise?

We used to have more fun

The current economic environment is tough, especially when it comes to funding. When can we expect to see a return to previous levels of funding for the ATMP sector?

Coffee Break

11:05 – 11.30

Networking coffee break

Session 2

11:30 – 12:20

Can we make them cheaper?

Advanced Therapies offer huge benefits, but often at a huge price tag. How can we improve standardisation and reduce the costs of manufacturing?

Session 4

14.15 – 15.05

Not so rare after all

The first success of ATMPs has been seen in rare and complex diseases, but they have potential to go much further. How far and how fast can Advanced Therapies transition into more mainstream indications?

Tour option: Catapult Cell & Gene Therapy

The Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult are providing exclusive tours of their Skills and Training Labs and new Process Analytical Technologies Lab (launched March 2023), to Advanced Therapies Integrates attendees.

Session 5

15.10 – 16.00

I got skills, they’re multiplying

Between 2021 and 2026, the UK advanced therapy and bioprocessing workforce is predicted to increase by over 100%. How can the industry and government work together to attract and retain the skills to support this growth?

An ATMP plan of action

With a 75 year old health service built around more ‘traditional’ methods of treatment, how can we ensure healthcare providers are supported and enabled to rapidly and effectively deploy Advanced Therapies?
