Convergent Evolution Towards Bioprocessing 4.0

In evolutionary biology, "convergent evolution" is the process whereby organisms, not closely related, independently evolve similar traits as a result of having to adapt to similar environments or ecological niches.

Such a convergent evolution does not only exist in nature. One can even observe it in today’s biopharmaceutical industry!

The current paradigm shift and digital transformation in biomanufacturing will result in a facility of the future that is truly an ecosystem of intensified, connected & continuous processing seamlessly coupled with uninterrupted data acquisition and analysis. Together, this will make real-time lot release and lights-out manufacturing achievable to the ultimate benefit of patients around the globe, expanding access to affordable life-saving and life-enhancing biotherapeutics.

No matter your path – developing an intensified, connected or continuous bioprocess or going a step further towards Bioprocessing 4.0 – the BioContinuum™ Platform provides the process and digital building blocks to help you achieve your bioprocessing goals.

Convergent Bioprocessing: Inspired by nature, made better by scientists and engineers - now brought to biopharma. It’s time to converge – together!
