From July 10th to 11th, the multidisciplinary Curious2024 – Future Insight™️ Conference is bringing together some of the world’s brightest scientists, including several Nobel laureates, and the most accomplished innovators to present their work and explore the future of science and technology, solving the challenges of today and enabling the dreams of a better tomorrow.

Connect with the world of fine and speciality chemicals: taking place from 19-20 June 2024 at the Messe Düsseldorf exhibition centre in Germany, Chemspec Europe is the key marketplace to showcase the full array of fine and speciality chemicals, bespoke ­solutions, services, and equipment.  

Radiopharmaceutical Therapy (RPT) is offering several advantages over existing therapeutic strategies. The highly sought-after therapeutics require a sophisticated supply chain, as radioisotopes have short half-lives and must be delivered to patients with extreme speed and efficiency. ITM rises to this challenge as one of the largest global providers and developers of medical radioisotopes for this novel therapy.

The world of microbial product manufacturing is a complex landscape, ­driven by a diverse range of molecule formats and manufacturing processes. At the forefront of this specialty market is Boehringer Ingelheim Vienna, one global leader in biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing.

In addition to classic aseptic manufacturing topics, the international GMP PharmaCongress and GMP Pharmatechnica Expo 2024 in Wiesbaden will also address global challenges with modern vaccines and novel drugs based on cell and gene therapies. The event thus offers a comprehensive programme for experts from pharmaceutical manufacturing, technology and quality assurance from industry, labs and authorities, as well as a platform for the direct exchange of knowledge and experience.

Despite individual regulatory bodies having their own unique set of requirements, for most organisations, the challenges associated with annual product quality reviews (APQR) are largely the same. Issues with fragmented systems and paper-based processes prove increasingly burdensome.

With HAVEL LABS, a unique campus is being developed in Berlin-Spandau. ­Spanning over 20,000 m2, this space is designed for forward-thinking work environments. Modern industrial workplaces and logistics concepts, aligned with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) ­guidelines, can be ­effortlessly realised on the premises, as can laboratories ranging from safety level S1 to S3 in ­accordance with German Genetic Engineering Safety Regulations.

The city is investing in the future by establishing a modern campus and strengthening Mainz as a hub for life sciences. Space with convenient transport connections close to the city centre is available to found or relocate start-ups, companies and research facilities.

To address the demands of a growing population and enhance food and nutrition security, a transition from traditional chemical-derived production is essential. Biomanufacturing, known for its efficient use of natural resources, offers an ideal solution. Acies Bio recently added fermentation capacity and more versatile equipment for downstream processing and formulation.

This scrappy young city in the heart of Europe is rapidly becoming a magnet for successful start-ups and companies looking for plenty of room to grow, as well as a culture of cooperation and trust.
