Shaw made it clear that ValGenesis is committed to continually improving the capabilities and scalability across its product suite – VLMS, iRisk, Process Manager, Process Insight, e-Logbook – to meaningfully advance digital transformation in the life sciences industry. “ValGenesis will converge them in a new ‘Smart Validation’ platform, the industry’s only unified platform for manufacturing intelligence.

Across 27 sessions, speakers from ValGenesis, customers, and industry figures highlighted the many advancements in the portfolio.
FDA’s Francisco Vicenty presented a keynote on digital transformation being key to high quality in life sciences. The industry is evolving into a highly connected ecosystem of stakeholders working together for the best patient outcomes. “When we look at the idea of a future state and where we want to get to, we want a highly connected ecosystem with a validated set of models that enable data flow and exchange across an entire lifecycle,” he said. “We need to think the entire framework through so that we are more agile, more responsive, more flexible, and not wait for the next pandemic to be thinking about these things.” Vicenty underscored that the end goal is not the regulation in itself but patients and patient outcomes.
Driving exponential growth through unmatched offerings backed by a highly specialized partner network, ValGenesis continues to expand its customer base across the globe. ValConnect is an essential conduit for the company’s stakeholders to interact, helping them connect, trade ideas, and learn from one another.
