LOOKING BACK ON THE ZETON SYMPOSIUM: MASTERING CONTINUOUS MANUFACTURING AND MODULAR PLANT SOLUTIONS FOR TOMORROW’S HIGH-QUALITY MEDICINES

May 26, 2025

On Thursday, March 6, 2025, Zeton proudly hosted its exclusive symposium, “Mastering Continuous Manufacturing and Modular Plant Solutions for Tomorrow’s High-Quality Medicines” at the University of Twente in Enschede, the Netherlands.

What an incredible day it was! We welcomed 79 participants from leading pharmaceutical companies such as AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly, Roche, Merck, Sanofi, J&J, and many others. Top CMOs in continuous manufacturing—including Ajinomoto, CordenPharma, Flamma, and Snapdragon—were also present, making the day a true convergence of thought leadership and cutting-edge innovation.

Inspiration, Innovation & Interaction

Throughout the day, our expert speakers – Bert Metten, Gareth Alford, David Linder, Richard Spencer and Gabriel Loh – gave presentations on the future of continuous manufacturing and modular factory solutions. Under the engaging leadership of our chair, Anne Bard, we explored the key trends, challenges and opportunities shaping the pharmaceutical manufacturing landscape.

A Unique Behind-the-Scenes Look

A highlight of the day was the exclusive tour of Zeton B.V., where participants experienced innovation in action—including a glimpse of a ContiUnity® process system project currently under construction. This behind-the-scenes visit offered valuable insight into how modular technology is engineered and scaled across a wide range of applications, from lab-scale systems to full-scale modular cGMP/GAMP compatible production plants.
