With the Life Science Factory initiated by Sartorius, we aim to promote scientific progress in the life sciences and strengthen research and development of innovative technologies with a clear focus on applications. This is why we provide open-space offices, a prototyping dry lab and a wide offer of events revolving around life science entrepreneurship for scientists and research teams who aim to take their initial steps outside of academic institutions.

Anyone who wants to get their products approved has to take many different aspects into account. This requires a precise knowledge of the requirements for a drug (and medical device) dossier. For example, in the quality area, the time to market is significantly shortened if the approval requirements are taken into account right from the start in quality-relevant documents. Regulatory requirements must also be taken into account urgently in non-clinical and clinical studies in order to avoid additional demands from the authorities.
In addition, there are other regulatory requirements, such as manufacturing authorization, wholesale authorization and quality management system, without which no market entry is possible.
The aim of the event is to consider approval-related issues in your product planning. Often, requirements can be defined on a product-specific basis to avoid unnecessary detours.
