How does a CDMO manage the natural uncertainties of an early development HPAPI compound?
High potent active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPI) are effective at much smaller dosage levels than traditional APIs, but their potent characteristics present specific handling challenges. Meet the team from SK pharmteco to understand their perspective.
Pre-registration is required. Please email Jo Stickings to receive your invitation.

Recession, a global pandemic, Brexit – it’s fair to say the events of the past decade have shaped the pharma industry landscape. How has it responded to these challenges and how can it make the most of future opportunities? How will innovation in product quality, manufacturing and working practises drive future productivity?
Sponsored By: Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre, CPI
TREATMENT
With the ever increasing focus on personalised medicines, what strategies are we putting in place to ensure new drugs hit the 5Rs? Are we maximising clinical data? What does this mean for rare diseases?
Sponsored By: Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre, CPI
TECHNOLOGY
How are tech giants and pharma companies collaborating to drive innovation in healthcare? What are the large pharma companies really looking for when it comes to new technologies, and at what stage will they pay for them? Is pharma manufacturing making the most of the digital revolution? Will COVID-19 change all of this?

Partnership for innovation: how medicines will be made in future
The pharma and lifesciences ecosystem was already facing significant opportunities and disruption from technology advances, pricing pressure, digital and new entrants. In a Covid-19 world and with Brexit uncertainty the level of disruption has only been amplified. This panel will explore the disruptive themes and key success factors for companies to navigate our changing environment.

Taking stock: Impact on supply chains in a post Covid world
The COVID 19 virus pandemic has rocked the world to its core. There are likely to be many and far-reaching consequences of this on the Pharmaceutical industry. One aspect that will come under scrutiny is in the area of risk management and continuity of Pharmaceutical supply chains. What have we learned that will shape supply chains of the future? What innovations have been accelerated to address the challenges? Will we see radical changes in the factors pharma companies consider when making outsourcing decisions? Will they recalculate the balance between working capital and inventory management? Will large companies consider a slowing or even reversal in the trend to outsource API/DP manufacture, with greater investment in internal assets?

Patenting in a pandemic: How can you make your IP future-proof and flexible?
The world of healthcare has changed enormously in the last 12 months. Many companies aren’t letting a crisis go to waste – they are repurposing drugs to treat Covid-19 and rushing to protect potential IP. Others haven’t been so fortunate – lockdown has prevented them from generating the data needed to secure patents.
Building flexibility into your patent portfolio is more important now than ever. Through case studies, we will discuss:
Options for securing effective IP on repurposed drugs.
Tips for speeding up and slowing down prosecution.
Powers that Governments have to use patented drugs and the enforcement of IP rights for Covid vaccines and treatments.
Securing IP for Covid-related inventions: the balance between patenting for profit and philanthropy.

Covid-19 has meant rapid adoption of digital health across the system. As health and care become digital by default, what should pharma do next? Should they think internally, utilising digital health to improve their own processes; tactically, with digital health offerings for their own brands; or as a strategic partner, supporting health economies to be more sustainable, efficient and resilient? Join us as we discuss the changing landscape?

Partnership for innovation: how medicines will be made in future
We aspire to bring together the incredible talents of the pharma tech industry to bring forward the next generation of therapeutics – delivered in a cheaper and greener way.
It is now apparent that true collaboration holds the key to realising this aspiration. Science-led innovation on both sides of the fence is required to ensure access to the best experience, expertise and infrastructure wherever it resides. The ‘them and us’ outsourcing model of the past is being replaced, wherein innovation partnerships are being leveraged to produce much more efficient and effective drug discovery, development and supply.
Industry 4.0 and the digital transformation? New modalities? Big data? Shared risk and reward? Let’s properly re-imagine the future alliances essential to get new medicines to all those that need them across the globe.
