BrevisRefero (Booth#1313 – brevisrefero.com), in partnership with the educational platform BrickMMO (brickmmo.com), will be showcasing an ‘Interactive Educational Biologics CDMO Facility Built Exclusively of LEGO® Bricks’ (sized 7ft x 2.5ft) featured at our booth. BIO attendees will be able to join us at our booth for an immersive and educational look at the biologics manufacturing like never before! With multimedia components in each room, and moving LEGO® systems simulating typical biomanufacturing processes, to learn more about each manufacturing suite and its role in the overall manufacturing process. Each CDMO facility room has been sponsored by an CDMO exhibiting at the BIO 2024 conference; Process Development Laboratory (Biodextris, Booth#4551) Upstream Manufacturing (JOINN Biologics, Booth#1115), Downstream Manufacturing (WheelerBio, Booth#4955), Quality Control Laboratory (Scorpius, Booth#4916), and Fill/Finish Manufacturing (Argonaut, Booth#5742). 

Our interactive CDMO facility is a unique, creative, and new way to increase engagement, connection, and impactful biologics learnings at BIO. With such a high presence of CDMO company booths at the BIO conference, along with planned activities to engage with our CDMO sponsor booths, we feel that our event will help to increase engagement with many CDMO booths and provide a better understanding and appreciation towards CDMO activities and biomanufacturing processes overall, that produce life-saving products every day.
