The keynote panel, taking place at Genesis on 10 December at 1 Wimpole Street, London will explore the above question; What do you think should feature in the conversation? As the final preparations take shape, themes include:

• Breakthroughs beyond traditional small molecules and standard biologics, such as advanced RNA therapeutics (SymphoRNA), spatial genomics, and three-dimensional genome architecture (Nucleome Therapeutics).
• Exploring how targeting previously "undruggable" pathways or cellular mechanisms (such as aging/longevity biology via LinkGevity or targeted protein degradation/modification via TRIMTECH Therapeutics) can revolutionise disease treatment.
• The translational hurdles of taking novel, high-risk biological platforms out of academic labs and proving their viability in pre-clinical and clinical settings.
• Addressing how convergence with adjacent fields like AI/ML and multi-omics data integration accelerates target discovery and optimisation.
• Navigating the complex IP landscape for next-gen innovations where traditional patent categories may fall short, particularly regarding AI-derived discoveries, genetic code, and platform technologies.
• Whether current venture capital and public funding models are structured to support high-risk, long-horizon science or if they overly favour incremental, lower-risk asset development.
• What are the strategic collaborations and infrastructure required to scale these capital-intensive, early-stage scientific breakthroughs.

Sharing your suggestions in advance will help shape the panel discussion. At the event, questions from the audience and conversations during the networking sessions will further develop the key takeaways, provide an opportunity to showcase expertise and help build valuable connections.
