10:00 am Panel Discussion – Tackling New & Emerging Diseases With mRNA Technology & Regional Manufacturing for a Globally Equitable Vaccine Supply Chain

mRNA Technology Leader, Meiji Seika Pharma
Professor, Gachon University School of Medicine
Chief Strategy Officer, The RIGHT Foundation

With organizations such as the Korean Disease Control and Prevention Agency (KDCA), the Korean Ministry of Health, and The RIGHT Foundation, driving investment into next-generation mRNA technologies, collaboration between Korean and international stakeholders to achieve success has never been more critical. They will also be key to advancing regional manufacturing capabilities and ensuring equitable access to vaccines worldwide, particularly across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).

Hear from vaccine experts as they shed light on strategies to overcome the next pandemic through RNA technology innovations including:

  • How to develop key biopharma partnerships to achieve the impact on global vaccine equity?
  • How to leverage best practices for mRNA vaccine R&D and local manufacturing in LMICs?
  • Outlining current bottlenecks with scaling up to ensure regional capacity and global availability of mRNA vaccines
