About the AMR Conference

The AMR Conference is a platform for SMEs, start-ups, big pharma, academia, investors and public institutions to discuss strategies and specific challenges faced by the innovation ecosystem in bringing new antimicrobial treatments and diagnostics to the market.

The conference is the one-stop shop to catch up with the latest trends in the development of AMR products, by covering scientific, regulatory, financial and policy topics. Besides high-level talks, the conference is a great place to network and exchange views on innovative technologies, development paths and alternative business models with your peers. The conference also offers a one-to-one partnering to facilitate interactions.

Once more, the 9th edition will cover the whole innovation value chain, including scientific breakthrough, preclinical and clinical development, but also financial topics such as public funding for R&D, market incentive and investors’ perspective. Specific sessions will be dedicated to access, manufacturing and financing. There will also be a focus on One Health and on the growing threat of sexually transmitted diseases. Among other highlights, there will be again a start-up pitch, hosted by the pharma-backed incubator INCATE, and a presentation of scientific posters.
