The summit convenes global leaders to confront scientific, economic, and systematic barriers that may limit patient access to potentially curative cellular medicines. Experts in research, clinical care, policy, market access, economics and patient advocacy will engage in cross-sector dialogue to explore pricing, manufacturing, regulation, and reimbursement strategies.

Through a series of moderated discussions and expert-led exchanges, participants will examine key barriers and emerging solutions across the access and affordability landscape, including:

❋ Risk Reduction and Payer Engagement 

Exploring innovative approaches to commercial insurer participation, evidence generation, and shared-risk frameworks that support coverage decisions.

❋ Evolving Policy and Finance Models

Assessing public and private sector strategies, including outcomes-based reimbursement and new affordability models for one-time, high-impact therapies.

❋ Manufacturing and Regulatory Innovation

Highlighting advances in scalable manufacturing, regulatory science, and quality systems that can reduce costs and accelerate global access.

❋ Engaging discussion.

Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.
