To truly capitalize on the advanced therapy innovation happening in Philadelphia, the region faces a hard truth: Will Philly lead—or will we lose out to bigger biotech hubs like Boston?

This inaugural event will dive deep into Advanced Therapies, showcasing Philly’s leadership in cell, gene, and mRNA therapies. You’ll hear firsthand from a CAR-T patient whose life was saved by local innovation and connect with the visionary leaders driving the next generation of breakthroughs.

Most importantly, we’ll tackle the tough questions: Is Philly doing enough to keep these groundbreaking companies here? Where do we excel, and where do we need to step up to build an ecosystem where advanced therapy companies stay, scale, and thrive? This is about making sure Philly doesn’t just start strong—but finishes as a dominant force in biotech.

At this event, you’ll get:

• A close look at Philly’s strengths in advanced therapies—and where we need to do more.
• Inspiring patient stories, like a CAR-T recipient whose life was changed by innovation born here.
• Access to visionary leaders and companies shaping what’s next in biotech.
• Insights into emerging trends that will define the future of advanced therapies.

This is Philly’s shot to own the future of biotech—let’s make sure we don’t miss it. Join the conversation, connect with key players, and help shape the strategy to keep Philly at the top.
