Clone of OCTS USA 2021
17-18 Nov 2021
Boston, USA
The Onco Cell Therapy Summit (OCTS), November 16 - 18, Boston USA, brings the industry together to share novel research, manufacturing techniques, and regulatory best practice. Each session of OCTS 2021 is dedicated to the process of translating R&D into commercially viable oncological therapies.The race for bringing the first BCMA targeting CAR-T to the market is reaching a climax and next-generation cell therapies are at the front of mind for those in both industry and research.Significant break throughs in GvHD for allogeneic treatments and in the use of alternative cell therapies mean that onco cell therapies are embedding themselves as the 5th pillar of oncology. New combination studies and manufacturing capabilities are showing even more promise for this sector, but with current treatments still having high costs of use and as there are limited patient pools, there are still challenges in both clinical and commercial use of these therapies.We’ve worked with industry partners to ensure that OCTS 2021 is dedicated to the effective translation and commercialization of research into safe and efficacious therapies and address these challenges.

Personalized Nutrition 2021
28-29 Jun 2021
Virtual | EDT Timezone
Partnerships and Innovation: Driving the Personalized Nutrition Industry ForwardThe global Personalized Nutrition market is forecasted to grow to $16.6 billion USD by 2027. Increasing consumer awareness about the role of nutrition on wellbeing and immunity (in part driven by Covid-19), coupled with the rise in digital health tools, testing kits, and wearables, is exacerbating this trend. There is also increasing acceptance in the healthcare industry that the “one-size-fits-all” approach to nutrition has failed, and that personalized approaches have a critical part to play in preventative care.However, despite potential, there are still considerable challenges preventing this industry from becoming mainstream. Start-ups in this space are struggling with customer retention & feedback and proving that their products work, and CPG firms and supplement brands are still assessing how best to invest in “the personal”. This Summit will provide the perfect forum for the CEO’s and founders of innovative personalized nutrition start-ups to meet with potential partners and investors. It will bring together CPG firms, supplement brands, and start-ups who are specializing in this space, to foster further partnerships and innovation.

Targeting RNA Congress 2021
15-17 Mar 2021
Virtual Summit
Targeting RNA is set to be the next big thing; 85% of human genome transcribed to RNA but only 3% translated into proteins, therefore making it an obvious target. With Risdiplam being approved by the FDA in August, and several major collaborations also being penned throughout 2020, including a $190 million deal between Arrakis and Roche, it seems like a good time to target these protein precursors. Targeting RNA 2021 will take a look at the latest techniques to analyse and predict protein structure, as well as hearing from leading researchers and industry on how to incorporate learnings from RNA biology into potent and selective ligands to help prevent, rather than treat, disease.
