The Medicine Accelerator Exchange: Practical Strategies for Tech-Driven CMC

Key Topics

Designed for senior pharma professionals, this event includes case studies and presentation by subject matter experts, with previous event topics including:

Engineer. Model. Simulate. Optimize: Better Pharma Processes Through Digital Innovation
Digital tools are transforming pharmaceutical engineering—from process design to commercial manufacturing. This session explores how modeling, simulation, advanced analytics, and PAT can unlock faster, more robust development. Real-world case studies will demonstrate how these methods improve quality, scalability, and compliance while supporting smarter, more agile decision-making.

From Crystallization to Compression: Leveraging Co-Processing to Improve Powder Flow in API Development
Bridging drug substance and drug product development is often hindered by poor powder flow. This talk highlights co-processing strategies that integrate crystallization, milling, and excipient engineering to enhance material properties. The result: smoother downstream processing and fewer scale-up barriers.

Computational Solvent Selection: Optimizing Crystal Morphology in API Crystallization
Crystal shape impacts every stage of solid drug processing. This session introduces a computational workflow for predicting how solvents influence particle morphology—enabling smarter solvent screening and faster crystallization development. In silico predictions are validated against experimental data to illustrate the method’s real-world utility.

Accelerating ATMP Development: From Lab to GMP in Under 12 Months

ATMP development demands a faster, more flexible model. This case study details how APC and VLE Therapeutics achieved GMP readiness in less than 12 months, reducing COGS by 94%, increasing yield fourfold, and cutting processing time by over 60%. The session examines how digital CMC tools enabled these outcomes and redefined the tech transfer process.

Leveraging a Tech-CMC Approach to Accelerate End-to-End Process Characterization
This session explores how The Medicine Accelerator's digital platform, iAchieve®, enabled a full process characterization (PC) program—from FMEA through regulatory documentation—in just 12 months. Learn how digital integration, cross-functional alignment, and contextualized CMC decisions support faster timelines and higher confidence in process understanding.

Networking Sessions

Who Should Attend

This event is designed for leaders across Process Research & Development, Process Chemistry, and MSAT functions who are driving innovation, efficiency, and performance in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Technical Directors and Site Leaders seeking practical, cost-effective solutions to Process R&D and MSAT challenges—from resolving complex deviations to enabling seamless tech transfer and scale-up.

Process Development Leaders looking to harness the power of modeling, Process Analytical Technology (PAT), and other advanced tools to overcome site-specific resource constraints and operational bottlenecks.

Operations and Production Managers focused on improving plant performance, reducing cost of goods (COGS), and delivering results aligned with global corporate goals.

Engineering and Process Support Managers aiming to supplement internal teams with agile, consultative MSAT expertise—whether for short-term troubleshooting or strategic capability building.
