YOU’RE INVITED:

Biologics and Brews

Take an evening to enjoy great food and brews with the biologics industry’s best.
Dive deeper into our expertise in biologics development—including mRNA and gene therapy production—at Biologics and Brews, our most popular networking event, now making its first exclusive UK stop.

  • Date: Wednesday, March 25, 2026
  • Time: 5-7 p.m.
  • Location: The Red Lion, Parliament Street–The Cabinet Room (48 Parliament St, London SW1A 2NH)
This happy hour during NextGen Biomed will feature food and brews while connecting you with thought leaders in advanced biologics production, including protein, enzymatic, mRNA, and gene-based therapies.


What’s on tap (besides the beer)?


Get ready to discuss all things drug development, including our Path to IND for biologics platform, designed to help biotech companies move from DNA to first-in-human Phase I clinical trials in as little as nine months.*

For a sneak peek at this offering, watch our recent webinar: “Accelerating biologics: From final DNA to Phase I in under 9 months.”

Originally presented at BIO 2025, this session explores the details of this innovative initiative, only offered by Thermo Fisher Scientific.


*Terms and Conditions: Titer levels provided are estimates based on third-party results and may vary depending on molecule type or other factors. Timelines from DNA to drug product and the start of clinical trials for all Path to IND for biologics options may vary depending on molecule type or other factors and are estimates to be finalized once third-party cell line development dates are available and confirmed. The 9-month timeline may incur additional risk.
