Last day to claim your 0 yuan forum ticket! Led by professors from Wuhan University, Zhejiang University, and East China University of Science and Technology: AI drives disruptive innovation while enabling scalable production.

The biomanufacturing industry has long faced an awkward reality:Many breakthroughs happen in the lab, but few make it to production.

Academician Tan Tianwei of the Chinese Academy of Engineering noted that while many biomanufacturing technologies are mature in the lab, they often fail during pilot-scale-up: "Microbes thrive in small-scale tests but 'go on strike' in large fermentation tanks." Academician Zhao Guoping of the Chinese Academy of Sciences highlighted that lack of predictability remains a key challenge in synthetic biology. Bridging the "last mile" from lab to factory has become the core challenge for commercializing biomanufacturing.

AI is becoming the key tool to bridge this "last mile."

During industrial production, AI processes multi-source heterogeneous data from both online and offline sources to not only accurately predict the timing for feed addition and scale-up but also enable proactive anomaly detection—identifying future risk fluctuations while all indicators still appear "normal." Driven by reinforcement learning, process self-evolution is shifting manufacturing from "reliance on expert intuition" to "digital-driven evolution."

2026 (2nd) Yimao Bio-Manufacturing Industry Conference & Exhibition (Summer) will be held in Shanghai from 8 to 28.At the exhibition, we will invite2000+Attendee,100+Speaker,20+Premium exhibitors, featuring "Conference - Exhibition - Meeting - EventFour core modules focused on "fundamental research breakthroughs + cross-domain industrial implementation," providing comprehensive coverage.Medicine & Aesthetics, Bio-based Materials & Green Chemicals, Food & Agriculture, AI-Enabled SolutionsCore Focus: Deeply connecting top-tier research experts, industry leaders, innovative SMEs, investment firms, and upstream/downstream supply chains to create a benchmark event for the entire bio-manufacturing value chain.

8 27,AI-Enabled Biomanufacturing ForumUnite top industry leaders to deliver a complete AI-powered journey from R&D to production.

Morning session focuses on "AI-driven foundational innovation in synthetic biology."Professor Hu Qiannan from Wuhan University will demonstrate how his team leverages AI to compress original pathway design timelines from "six months" to "14–20 days"; Researcher Yao Yuan from Zhejiang University will share how AI-assisted rational strain design is driving a revolution in R&D efficiency.

Afternoon session shifts to "AI-Powered Scalable Production"”Prof. Tian Xiwei from East China University of Science and Technology will explain how AI optimizes fermentation processes and scale-up production; Deng Siwei, Co-founder of Jindu BioTech, will reveal how a full-link intelligent closed loop enables the leap "from R&D brain to automated factory."

From gene editing to strain design, from process optimization to large-scale production—this forum will show you that AI-enabled biomanufacturing is not a distant vision, but a reality unfolding today.
