Support Your Scientists Through Operational Creativity & Efficiency
The external landscape for biopharma continues to shift as demand for conservative spending increases with uncertainty around tariffs, and companies have greater responsibility to manage a surplus in excess space. Standing as the backbone of scientific support, lab operations professionals are relied upon to manage the lab with the utmost efficiency, retain a compliant working environment, optimize resources, and wear as many hats as possible to ensure R&D forever continues.
The 2nd Lab Ops & Facility Management for Biopharma Summit (LOFM), in collaboration with the likes of Sonoma Biotherapeutics, Vertex, and Ultragenyx, is uniting 60+ senior lab operations and facilities professionals to discuss critical process improvements contributing towards an efficient, safe, and sustainable lab environment to protect R&D in light of external headwinds.
The summit currently stands as the only industry meeting that:
- Is crafted specifically for lab operations professionals and facilities professionals who wear many hats, complimenting the multi-faceted role of your role
- Prioritizes fast growing biotechs on the West Coast to benchmark against best lab practice and provide meaningful networking opportunities
- Features a LOFM-exclusive careers evening, shaped in collaboration with BMS, Kite Pharma and Adaptive Biotechnologies to acknowledge the support you provide to your end-users by helping unlock the secrets to truly thrive in your career
Join your community to better operationalize your labs, move away from paper whilst remaining within budget, and make strategic decisions to support your scientists.
The workshop style roundtables were great and gave the attendees time to talk to each other. I got the chance to know a lot of people.
Lab Operations Manager, Life Edit Therapeutics
Great opportunities to meet with like-minded peers across all levels of company size. I thoroughly enjoyed the roundtable discussions, networking sessions and format that allowed speakers to curate their presentations to the audience.
Associate Director, Discovery Operations Lead, Merck
Wonderful to be amongst a group of people in the same "niche" job, interesting to see all the different hats people wear and see how different the job can be even with the same title.
