Overview

The drug delivery industry is expected to experience robust growth to exceed more than $1,900 Billion by 2024. The key reasons for growth include: drug innovation and technological advancements, new drug products, growth of biologics, chronic diseases and the growth of the geriatric population.

Often, the most complex part of developing a therapeutic is to design an appropriate delivery system for it. The use of drug delivery technologies will continue to rise, as the industry focuses on more cost-effective, targeted, and patient-centered therapies.

The Partnership Opportunities in Drug Delivery (PODD) conference is a technology and business development event focusing on the latest trends and technologies in drug delivery, while also fostering collaborations. The PODD event features a wide range of innovative drug delivery technologies that could potentially improve the delivery of various types of drugs, including proteins, peptides, oligonucleotides, biologics, and small molecules.
