PROGRAM SUMMARY:

Join ISPE and our host ElevateBio, 2021 ISPE FOYA Category Award Winner for Operational Excellence, for an informative and fun filled evening of Facility Tours and a Panel Discussion with industry experts on June 8th at ElevateBio’s Basecamp facility in Waltham, MA. We will delve into the challenges of bringing manufacturing facilities to operational readiness and delivering life-saving therapies.

These days, it is critically important to think hard (but not too long) about your manufacturing strategy for advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs); should you focus your energy on site selection, design, construction and the challenges of achieving operational readiness and building an internal organization or enter into a partnership with a Contract Manufacturing organization capable of meeting your time to market, technical requirements and quality parameters?

Regardless of your chosen strategy, there is complexity and challenge throughout the project Lifecyle. At this Panel Discussion you will hear from a wide-ranging group of industry leaders with many years of experience in fields that play pivotal roles in the success of bringing a product to market in a fast-moving industry.

Learn about the perspectives and strategies of bringing a new multi-modal facility on-line from Mike Paglia (COO, ElevateBio BaseCamp); new process technologies, throughput modelling and designing for flexibility from Emily Heffernan (US Director, New Process Technology, DPS Group); the challenges that abound with site selection and leveraging local and state incentive programs from Bob Coughlin (Managing Director, JLL); and the considerations and planning required to develop manufacturing solutions in house from Brett Belongia (VP, CMC Operations, Oncorus Inc).
