AI, Digitalization, and Advanced Synthesis in Pharma Manufacturing

In this episode, we speak with François Ricard, Christian Seufert, and Jan Vertommen from Lonza’s Advanced Synthesis platform about how AI-driven process innovation is shaping the development and manufacture of complex molecules.

Tune in to hear how pharmaceutical manufacturing is moving toward more data-driven approaches. From AI-based route scouting to process optimization, our guests discuss how these tools are being applied in practice to improve decision-making and reduce uncertainty in early-stage processes.

They also explore advances in conjugation and bioavailability enhancement, including how new approaches can help identify likely solid-state forms. Together, these innovations support the development and manufacture of increasingly complex, difficult-to-make molecules.
