Event Title: Are We Ready? The State of Biomanufacturing in Canada: Advancements, Challenges, and Next Steps
Dive into the future of biomanufacturing in Canada at our April Knowledge & Networking breakfast event. The COVID-19 pandemic exposed Canada's diminished capacity in Biomanufacturing which led to the federal government announcing Canada's Biomanufacturing and Life Sciences Strategy in 2021. Hear from our panel of leaders, three years after the announcement, have we moved the needle in terms of growing domestic Biomanufacturing? How has this impacted drug shortages and supply chains? And what more needs to be done to ensure Canadians have the right health technologies when they need them most.
