About event

We are pleased to invite Dutch Organ-on-a-Chip (OoC) companies to join the first workshop in this three-part series, focused on accelerating the sustainable and large scale OoC integration by end-users.

The first interactive online session is designed to help OoC companies gain a deeper understanding of the needs, priorities, and decision-making processes of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. Through expert presentations, industry perspectives, and interactive discussions, participants will explore how to strengthen their strategic positioning, enhance their commercial readiness, and demonstrate the value of their OoC solutions to potential partners and customers.

We are happy to share already the first two speakers with you:

Roche: Prof. Dr. Adrian Roth
Novartis: Prof. Dr. Dominic Hoepfner & Dr. Patrick Misun

During this workshop, participants will:

  • Gain insight into the Organ-on-a-Chip landscape, market opportunities, and adoption barriers.

  • Hear pharmaceutical, biotechnology and CRO perspectives on priorities, validation, and technology evaluation.

  • Develop a problem–solution fit to strengthen market positioning and value proposition.

This workshop lays the foundation for the second online workshop in September, which will focus on the implementation of Organ-on-Chip technology within CROs, biotech companies, academic medical centres, and hospitals. Together, these sessions are designed to help Dutch Organ-on-Chip companies strengthen their strategic positioning, refine their commercial messaging, and enhance their readiness for collaboration. The insights and connections gained will subsequently be applied during a third live workshop with end-users in Switzerland in 2027.

We look forward to welcoming you online!
