Developments in Digital Biomanufacturing: Technology Growth Opportunities

Digitalization of the entire value chain will drive next-generation biomanufacturing. The industry is all set to move away from the traditional pen-and-paper-based process to a more advanced, digitized, track-and-trace process that is aligned toward Industry 4.0. Digital tools applied across processes, monitoring, analytics, and operations have accelerated biomanufacturing with a data-driven approach. Digital biomanufacturing can streamline processes and assist with optimal use of resources.

Scalability and reproducibility are some of the crucial challenges in biomanufacturing, especially in the production of biologics, and cell and gene therapies, or viral vector manufacturing. Digitalization is enabling a sustainable, effective, cost-efficient, time-efficient, and error-free system for biomanufacturing.
