Project description
The project has the purpose is to identify, nurture, and preliminary test emerging technologies, methodologies and/or approaches which can enable in the future (5 – 10 years) the delivery of peptides to patients in a way that minimizes the environmental footprint and closes material loops.

Task description

The workshops will be run by internal BI employees and participants may be internal or external relevant stakeholders. The contractor may participate to these workshops in order to capture the content, discussions and decisions.
