Informa Life Sciences introduces small scale bioproduction to April BioProcess International event

(Informa Life Sciences / London) Informa LS is pleased to announce the introduction of small scale bio manufacturing of bio therapeutics to the agenda for its next 2015 BioProcess International European Summit. The summit is scheduled to take place in Dusseldorf, Germany between the 14 & 15 April 2015.

The introduction of small scale production will complement the existing agenda already covering large scale manufacturing. Attendees of the conference will now get a complete overview of bioprocessing and the journey from small scale R&D to large scale manufacturing.

James Miguel, Sales Director of Informa LS Biopharmaceutical production conference series explains "the essence of small scale biomanufacturing isn't new to the BPI European summit. It has been covered in various sessions during the conference in the past however this is the first time we have organised a dedicated agenda specifically for professionals seeking information on production issues more relevant to R&D".

The new small scale production agenda will provide the following outlook:

Topic: Bioproduction for small to mid-size companies. Includes;

• Moving from an academic setting to industrial production
• Top 5 pitfalls SMEs fall into when moving into GMP
• GMP expectations when moving from early stage to late-stage production - what is expected?
• How to manage resources on a limited budget - front loading development vs. back load development

Topic: What are big pharma looking for in a good process? Includes;

• Why having a good process impacts licensing/ buyout opportunities
• How ease of integration can impact value
• What "checklist" big pharma using when evaluating good and bad processes? 

Topic: Bioproduction on a budget. Includes;

• How to manage resources on a limited budget - front loading development vs. back load development
