Upcoming bioRN M2M Member to Member session
| 12pm digital (Zoom)
bioRN M2 Member to Member featuring BioThrust
join the next ‘M2M – Member to member session’ to meet BioThrust, a spin-off from RWTH Aachen University developing a next generation bioreactor for the efficient manufacturing of cell therapies and stem cells. The core of this bioreactor is BioThrust’s unique membrane aeration technology which for the first time enables an effective completely bubble-free aeration of cell cultivations. With this technology, cell yields can be increased by up to 200%. The bioreactor will be available in sizes 250mL to 2000L. The deep-tech start-up is based in Aachen, Germany.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.M2M showcases bioRN companies, institutions, and players in the network. In a creative, casual, and flexible format, we portrait our members, the people behind the companies’ brand, to understand their business and mission and present their value to the other members.
