The last few decades have seen the biotech industry lead the charge in R&D innovation. But as companies look for ways to differentiate their products, R&D efforts have shifted from small molecules to exploring more advanced therapies. Is this the right approach for every company? Developing a molecule that doesn’t progress as hoped can be make or break for a biotech and have a drastic impact on their ability to raise capital or find partners.  
  
This session will explore the pros and cons of sticking to an area of research that is tried and tested vs. embracing new modalities of treatment, and how to navigate the unique challenges of emerging modalities such as the ability to manufacture these treatments.
