Why this is critically important for the oligonucleotide industry
Oligonucleotide manufacturing is at a true inflection point, and this session addresses that head on. Ideal for those building, scaling, or modernising their oligonucleotide manufacturing, this session offers the historical context, lessons learned and outlook that is required to succeed in the next phase of oligo therapeutics.
The focus has shifted from research-grade oligos to high-throughput genomics and screening, commercial-scale GMP therapeutic manufacturing, and manufacturing at scale is a key priority. With the explosion of RNA therapeutics, siRNA, and emerging modalities, the future requires mindfully scaled operations to ensure consistency, quality and prevent costly delays. And at the heart of all of this, technology is rapidly changing alongside the industry’s needs. Discover how you can gain the competitive edge with automation and digitalisation sustainably coupled with the integration of robust quality frameworks. This is your need-to-know on how the industry got here, lessons on current models that are under strain, and where to direct your attention to get ahead in this next phase.
