Why Attend
The market value for cell therapies is expected to triple in size by 2025 to $8.21 bn, with investment also having increased by 64% since 2017 to $7.6 bn. Cell therapies have a huge commercial potential however scaled manufacturing, automation, logistics, regulation, and quality control continue to be limiting factors. Before cell therapies can make a mainstream clinical impact, patient access increased and truly reach their commercial potential, these obstructions need to be improved.
The Vein-to-Vein Congress will gather manufacturing, operations, site managers and logistical heads from both Biotechs and pharmaceutical companies to address these bottlenecks and facilitate the commercial manufacture of cell therapies.
As the cell therapy industry shifts from manual to automated manufacturing, the Vein-to-Vein Congress will discuss the measures that leading companies have put in place to streamline their manufacturing process, scale-up over time and ensure a water-tight supply chain with tracking and trackability from cell collection to patient.

The Agenda
If you’re working on autologous or allogenic cell therapies, The Vein-to-Vein Congress will cover a diverse range of cell types including NK, CAR-T, stem and placental cells.
The global cell and gene therapy market is projected to surpass $35B by 2026 and with investment in the space increasing 64% in the last two years It’s obvious there’s huge commercial potential. The question is, with the cost of cell therapies at a premium, how can the industry reduce COGS and facilitate a mass role out? There are clear bottlenecks that exist across the industry; scale-up of manufacturing, logistics, raw material supply, regulation and automation of processes are all posing real headaches to the rapidly growing field.
The Vein-to-Vein Congress EU will focus on providing actionable solutions to these bottlenecks through case studies and interactive panel sessions with leaders in cell therapy who’ve been through the same challenges that you’re experiencing. Whether you’re streamlining logistics, scaling and automating manufacturing processes or developing robust raw material supply chains, join 100+ CTOs, COOs, Heads of Manufacturing, QC and Supply Chain who’ve been there and done just that.
Take away actionable insights from a range of cell therapy types including:
· Building an in-house cell therapy manufacturing facility with Markwin Velders of Kite Pharma
· Upscaling manufacturing for clinical and commercial manufacturing with Ali Mohamed of Immatics.
· Ensuring a reliable and traceable supply of quality GMP starting and raw material with David Sourdive of Cellectis.
· Streamlining cell therapy manufacture through automation and integration of instruments with Fabio Fachin of Takeda.
· Establishing end to end accountability of materials and product from vein to vein with Volker Huppert of Glycostem.
