Session VII: Process Commercialization

Process development challenges encountered on the path to commercial success are often complex, daunting, and span both the technical and managerial realms. The time required to overcome these challenges and deliver a robust, scalable, and efficient process can often be the determining factor for whether a product is launched. Companies and investors depend on individuals, teams, and business processes that can consistently deliver an optimal process on schedule. For these reasons, process development, optimization, and efficiency play key roles in the lifecycle and viability of a product. In this session, we will discuss and provide case studies of the obstacles overcome for products/projects across various industries, and review the key factors which have contributed to their successes.
