Collaboration for the nation

Coronavirus vaccines have demonstrated just how key collaborations are. Should we be doing more, and what makes them effective?

FACILITATED BY

JAMES FRY | Partner and Head of Life Sciences | Mills & Reeve

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

The Global Biopharma Resilience Index

Cytiva’s Global Biopharma Resilience Index – based on a survey of more than 1,000 senior biopharma executives – takes a holistic look at the industry across five key pillars at a time when its health is vital. Fresh data shows there is work to be done to secure its future.

Emmanuel will speak about the challenges in the industry and what we can do to meet them.

EMMANUEL LIGNER | President and Chief Executive Officer | Cytiva

Hosted on our popular networking platform

Assuring Patient Access in a COVID World

What requirements do Biotech companies need to consider during clinical development to ensure that patients will gain access to their innovative therapies? How must Biotech companies adapt in order to be successful in an increasingly cost-conscious world?

FACILITATED BY

MEL WALKER | Managing Director | BioPharma Futures

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

Planting the seed

What does it take to raise seed funding, and what do you need to demonstrate for angels/investors to part with their money?

FACILITATED BY

JONATHAN APPLEBY | Chief Scientific Officer | Cell and Gene Therapy Catapult (CGT Catapult)

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

Growing pains

How, where, when and if to grow are decisions critical to the success of all biotech focused companies – spanning products to services. How do you plan, implement and adapt your growth strategy?

Value creation through growth is an imperative for all companies. What strategies work best in the biotech world?
Strategies invariably evolve over time. We will hear from companies that have pivoted from service to product – and vice versa. Is this by design or by necessity?
Self-proclaimed serial entrepreneurs are abundant. Where are the serial scalers? Do they exist? Are they hidden? Are they tied up in longer-term projects?
What tools and techniques exist to support the development of growth strategies? What works? Are they transferable?

FACILITATED BY

KEVIN COX | Chair | Biorelate

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it

With so many CDMOs providing the same services, how do they differentiate their offering? And how do biotechs chose the right one to work with?

FACILITATED BY

RICHARD WILLIAMS | SVP CMC & Development | Crescendo Biologics

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

Start with an end in mind

Should our products be patient-focused from the start, or should we be more mindful of milestones at the outset?

FACILITATED BY

JESÚS ZURDO | Global Head Cell, Gene Therapy & Bioproduction | Horizon Discovery

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

FACILITATED BY

ZAHID MONEER | Head of Healthcare, Investment Banking Division | BNP Paribas

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

It’s about time

COVID-19 vaccines have shown the public just how fast we can develop, assess and approve medicines. How can we accelerate these timelines outside of a pandemic?

FACILITATED BY

IAN MUIR | Chief Executive Officer | Porton Biopharma

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

Should I stay or should I go?

Brexit and the imminent funding gap has led to companies looking to locate elsewhere. We hear from countries/regions trying to attract Life Science companies.

FACILITATED BY

EMMA PALMER FOSTER | Strategic Communications Consultant | The Oxford Science Park

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

Playing it cool

Vaccine supply has demonstrated the importance of cold chain and agile supply chains. Do we have the infrastructure to supply, and ensure security? How can we build a robust supply chain to ensure medicines delivery doesn’t become rate-limiting?

FACILITATED BY

JOHN VANDORE | Business Development | Harwell Campus

PANELLISTS INCLUDE

Mind the gap

With increased public funding in coronavirus detection and vaccines, and restrictions on funding from the EU, will there be a major gap in life science funding?
