Advanced therapy companies have been rapidly populating over the past few years, making it a high-value, fast-growth industry. Key drivers include high rates of clinical trials, accelerated pathways for product approvals, new technologies to support cell and gene therapy manufacturing, and the potential for advanced therapies to revolutionize healthcare.
Stem Cell Industry Growth
Stem cell treatments are one of several segments that compose the advanced therapies industry, which includes but is not limited to cell therapy, gene therapy, and tissue engineering applications.
Stem cells have gained tremendous momentum over the last decade. As of November 2019, stem cell scientific publications have reached over 364,930 worldwide, with 25,000+ now being published per year.
For stem cell clinical trials, 7,400+ have been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov. Because this registry includes approximately 3/4ths of clinical trials worldwide, the total number of stem cell clinical trials worldwide is estimated to be approaching 10,000.
Phacilitate Leaders World & the World Stem Cell Summit
Each year, BioInformant enjoys participating in Phacilitate Leaders World, now part of Advanced Therapies Week. The event is co-hosted with the World Stem Cell Summit, an incredible global event that is cross-
Hosted in January in sunny Florida, the conference will attract 1,600+ attendees across worldwide, making it the largest networking and partnering event to serve the advanced therapy industry.
Whether your involved with stem cells, or are developing other cell therapies, gene therapies, and tissue engineering products, the event is epic.
As in past years, the event will showcase small and large companies, investors, and regulators, as well as facilitates strategic knowledge exchange. Focused on solutions to support R&D, accelerate clinical progress, and break through manufacturing bottlenecks, attendees will get to learn from key voices that are defining commercial success for cell and gene therapy products.
With 25+ hours of networking, 350+ organizations, and 200+ speakers from across the globe, the event provides extensive opportunities for collaboration and networking.
Below is a video featuring highlights from last year’s event and showcasing what you can expect from 2020.
If you can only attend one conference this year, I’d recommend this one because it attracts several thousand attendees, has a diverse global audience, and is two events in one (Phacilitate Leaders World and the World Stem Cell Summit).
If your team is interested to attend or sponsor, we received a code (“BIOINFORMANT“) for our community to get 10% off both delegate passes and event sponsorship.
