As the population grows, and demand for innovative medicines increases, the availability of state-of-the-art facilities is crucial for enhanced scientific R&D. However, West Coast lab owners face unique challenges including limited space availability, high costs, stringent regulatory requirements, rapid technological advancements, safety concerns, labor retention and recruitment, and infrastructure limitations.

This is forcing the pharma industry to streamline their lab design, planning, and management strategies.

Join industry experts in San Diego as they collaboratively debate and discuss strategies to maximize space and provide occupant-centric, sustainable, and cost-effective lab facilities.
