Biologics development carries inherent risk, particularly in early phases where funding constraints make speed, cost reduction, and efficient process development critical. High-throughput experimentation, automation, and AI-driven tools are increasingly being applied to bioreactor monitoring, inline analytics, and experimental design to enable faster development while supporting scalable, quality-by-design processes. Jonathan Haigh, Head of UK Sites, FUJIFILM Biotechnologies, discusses how harmonized manufacturing facilities and end-to-end digitization are further reducing supply chain risk and enabling agile, global commercial manufacturing.
