INCHEON -- CellFiber will jointly host the Next-Generation Stem Cell Manufacturing and Commercialization Strategy Workshop with Cytiva on Wednesday, 15 July 2026 at the Cytiva APAC Fast Trak™ Center in Songdo, Incheon. The hands-on program is designed for researchers and developers advancing mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) therapies from research into manufacturing and commercialization.

As MSC therapy development moves beyond research results toward real-world production, the shift to scalable, GMP-ready manufacturing has become decisive. Bringing together Cytiva’s bioprocessing expertise and CellFiber’s 3D cell culture technology, experts from both companies will work alongside participants to address the practical questions teams face in that transition — from commercialization roadmaps and research-to-manufacturing scale-up to the core GMP and process issues that determine commercial readiness.

A central feature is a hands-on session in which participants experience the integrated Cytiva - CellFiber workflow directly, complemented by Expert Clinic and Strategic Roundtable sessions on adherent stem cell scale-up and GMP process execution. The agenda spans both MSC and iPSC, giving teams weighing their next manufacturing step an applied, field-ready perspective rather than a product overview.

Program highlights (10:00-15:40)

· Commercialization roadmap for next-generation MSC therapies: from discovery to global commercialization
· Scale-up strategy for 3D MSC and iPSC manufacturing with CellFiber
· Expert Clinic: scale-up strategy and manufacturing execution for adherent stem cells
· Hands-on session: the integrated Cytiva-CellFiber workflow
· Strategic Roundtable: focused Q&A on core GMP process issues

Speakers include Mandy French, Chief Strategy Officer, CellFiber; Jeeheon Kang, Cell Therapy Field Application Specialist Leader, Cytiva; Kevin Tran, Senior Sales Specialist, CellFiber; and application and process development scientists from both organizations leading the hands-on session.

“Bringing a cell therapy program from the lab to the clinic depends on making the right manufacturing decisions early. This workshop gives teams a chance to work through those decisions hands-on, with an integrated workflow they can apply directly to their own programs.” — Mandy French, Chief Strategy Officer, CellFiber
