Past Presentations
“The Biomanufacturing Capacity Crunch: Where CDMO Demand Is Still Outrunning Supply” – Contract Pharma Conference 2026, Sept 24, 2026. Key takeaway from Eric Langer, BioPlan Associates, Inc. Biopharma companies continue to rely on CDMOs for development and manufacturing support, but many sponsors still struggle to find the right capacity at the right time. Drawing on BioPlan’s latest industry survey data, this session will examine where capacity constraints remain most acute, including mammalian production, microbial fermentation, cell therapy and gene therapy. The presentation also highlighted what is driving the imbalance, how CDMOs are expanding, and why sponsors are looking beyond open manufacturing slots to evaluate flexibility, technical expertise, responsiveness and long-term fit.
