Increasing Supply Chain Adaptability & Resilience in a Geopolitically Uncertain World
9:00 am

2025 has reshaped the geopolitical landscape, introducing a period of heightened complexity for the cell and gene therapy sector. While the industry is navigating tariff increases, tighter investment conditions, and challenges in entering new markets, these industry shifts are sharpening focus on resilient, adaptable network design to support sustainable growth and long-term innovation. This hands-on, interactive workshop will demonstrate how to strengthen supply chain efficiency through real-world case studies and practical frameworks. Attendees will gain the tools necessary to navigate evolving regulatory requirements and reliably scale operations in an increasingly complex and uncertain global environment.

This workshop will explore: 

  •  Navigating Costs: exploring strategies to manage tariff increases, raw material price volatility, and other unforeseen cost pressures whilst maintaining operational efficiency
  •  Scaling Amid Regulatory Uncertainty: approaches to navigating evolving regulatory landscapes while accelerating effective and compliant scale-up
  •  Expanding into Challenging Markets: discussing entry and expansion strategies for complex regions, including Latin America, Africa, and Australia, and addressing the associated regulatory, economic, and logistical hurdles
