Advanced Therapies Week Announces Move to San Diego for 2025, Ushering in a New Era of Celebrating Progress and Innovation in the Industry 

The move offers a novel opportunity for Phacilitate to develop the award-winning event further, in close proximity to a booming biotech hub, research institutions and academic centers. 

London, UK, December 14, 2023 - Phacilitate, a leading brand that connects advanced therapies industry leaders through inspiring conferences, vibrant communities and market intelligence, has announced a new destination for its flagship event, Advanced Therapies Week, for 2025. 

The new-look Advanced Therapies Week will take place from January 14–17 2025 at the San Diego Convention Center, a move granting accessibility advantages to the surrounding biotechnology hub, research institutions and academic centers. 

Advanced Therapies Week was created for knowledge sharing, relationship building and deal making for the cell and gene therapy industry. The award-winning event is home to the largest marketplace for tools and tech and is focused on creating moments of natural connection for the industry that spark long-lasting relationships, stretching far beyond transactional. 

Kim Barnes, President of Phacilitate explained “We have loved our annual tenancy in Miami and will be sad to leave behind the many memories made here. However, in listening to our customers, we understand that now is time to move on to pastures new, with more opportunities for keeping the event fresh and innovative, improving accessibility to biotechs and innovation based on the West Coast, and of course, bringing the Phacilitate magic to the Californian sunshine and beaches!” 

The move follows 20 years of Phacilitate operating within the advanced therapies industry, an anniversary due to be celebrated in style at this year’s final edition in Miami. Over these 20 years, iterations of Advanced Therapies Week have taken place in Washington and Baltimore, with the event moving to Miami in 2017. Attendee numbers over this time have evolved from 200 to 2,500, growing consistently in parallel with the industry. 

In order to continue developing the event in response to demands from a growing industry, the San Diego location provides exceptional opportunity for bringing the industry together, with both the convention center and HQ hotels closely located, overlooking the bay. 

Aside from industry-leading content, partnering opportunities and networking events, attendees can also expect to enjoy all the benefits of meeting in amazing restaurants, bars and wineries, while enjoying the warm Californian climate and beautiful sunsets over the coastline. 

“This exciting new location presents us with the opportunity to continue evolving Phacilitate’s story, following 20 years of connecting leaders in this space. We’re looking forward to ushering in the next decade of Phacilitate with a new look, ready to take on what the industry has to offer us in the years to come,” added Gareth Baguley, Executive Vice President of Phacilitate. 

Companies interested in sponsoring or exhibiting at Advanced Therapies Week 2025 in San Diego are invited to speak to the team to find out more about the event, and to pre-book their space. 

More information about attending the event will be available at Advanced Therapies Week 2024 as the Phacilitate team celebrates the final edition of the Miami event in true Phacilitate style, with the industry.
