BILS. 2026

11–12 February 2026 · Royal Lancaster Hotel · London · Invited Audience

Where intelligent biomanufacturing gets deployed

Leadership must keep pace to evolve and stay competitive.

BILS.ai brings together global bio innovation leadership across biologics, cell and gene therapy and cultivated protein leaders to clear biomanufacturing bottlenecks with AI, agile capacity and sustainable resilient operations.

Bio Innovation Leaders Dialogue London 2026

The four pillars of BILS.ai

AI‑enabled bioprocessing


Why it matters: It turns AI from experimentation into a daily control lever for yield, quality and release, so decisions are driven by live process data, not by the last deviation report.

Agile capacity and networks

Why it matters: It keeps capacity from becoming a stranded asset, allowing production to flex with demand and geopolitics instead of locking risk into fixed plants.

Workforce and human systems


Why it matters: It ensures automation and AI amplify human expertise rather than erode it, so factories stay resilient even as technology and portfolios change.
Why it matters:

Sustainable resilient operations


Why it matters: It aligns cost, compliance and climate by cutting resource intensity and strengthening supply continuity, which is now a board‑level expectation, not a side benefit.

02 · THE GAP

Curated for senior biomanufacturing leaders

​Why it Matters.

​In 2026 AI, automation and digital bioprocessing are moving from pilots into the heart of biomanufacturing.

 

At the same time companies are committing record capital to new facilities and regional networks while facing tight margins, skills gaps and rising sustainability expectations.

 

The question is no longer whether these shifts are coming but how to deploy them without breaking cost, compliance or supply.

03 · WHO IT'S CURATED FOR

Leaders on the path to intelligent biomanufacturing - AI‑powered bioprocessing, agile modular capacity, human‑centred Industry 5.0 systems and sustainable, resilient operations for 2026 and beyond.

MANUFACTURING & OPERATIONS

​​BILS.ai is an invite‑only deployment room for biomanufacturing, built for senior leaders across biologics, CGT and cultivated protein who are turning AI, new capacity and sustainability goals into working plants and networks in 2026.

VP Manufacturing · COO · Site Director · Head of Operations

Quality & Regulatory

VP Quality · Head of QA · Chief Quality Officer · RA Lead

It is a curated, invite‑only meeting in London for senior decision makers from biologics, cell and gene therapy and cultivated protein who sign off the next wave of capacity, technology and partnership commitments.

MSAT & PROCESS DEVELOPMENT

Head of MSAT · VP Tech Ops · Process Development Lead

Over two days the focus stays on four pillars – AI‑enabled bioprocessing, agile capacity and networks, workforce and human systems and sustainable resilient operations – because that is where 2026 decisions are actually made.

DIGITAL, DATA & R&D

VPs Innovation ·  VP Digital · Head of Data Science Digital Transformation Lead · Heads of R&D · Automation · Infrastructure 

For technology providers and CDMOs BILS.ai is where current bioprocess and biomanufacturing trends turn into multi‑year deployment roadmaps.

For operators it is a chance to stress‑test strategies with peers who are facing the same pressures on performance, resilience and sustainability and need answers they can put into practice in their own plants.
