Here’s What Some of Our Speakers Have to Say About This Meeting:

“I have not seen a conference or a forum specific to raw materials. This will definitely help companies to interact and gain some exposure to regulatory expectations around raw materials and single-use systems. This will ensure that they are prepared when their product is ready for commercialization” 

Asif Mahmood, Technical Director- Raw Materials, Bristol Myers Squibb

“Raw materials and material qualification is an emerging filed and knowledge sharing is key in the overall success of the cell and gene therapy space.  A lot of suppliers cannot support the needs of the cell and gene therapy raw material quality attributes and establishing a base line for everyone to be on the same page is the beginning” 

Sona Bairamian, Director- Materials Science, Atara Biotherapeutics
