Good beginnings!

We have assembled an exceptional panel of experts from industry, government, and academia to discuss the future of #biopharma in India and our expanding presence in global markets. The #BioE3 (Biotechnology for Economy, Environment, and Employment) Policy, approved by the Union Cabinet on August 24, 2024, to promote high-performance biomanufacturing, will also be a key focus of the discussions. https://lnkd.in/g_TW6pVJ Rajesh Gokhale Department of Biotechnology Jitendra Kumar Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance Council (BIRAC) Krishnan G S Murali Panchapagesa Muthuswamy Deepanwita Chattopadhyay Ezhil Subbian Ravi Bhola Manohar BN Dr. Balasubramanya S Indrila Sengupta Amitabha Bandyopadhyay Shreya Sanghvi Malik
