2026 - The Power of Less: Winning with Asset-Light Manufacturing

In today’s fast-moving and unpredictable market, companies face mounting pressure to produce efficiently while minimizing capital exposure. This webinar explores how asset-light manufacturing offers a practical path to increase flexibility, reduce infrastructure risk and accelerate market readiness. By partnering with a Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), companies can achieve capital efficiency, faster market entry and reduced risk, without the burden of owning production infrastructure.
Attendees will learn what “asset-light” truly represents, not only as a cost-efficient model, but as a strategic mindset that lets organizations focus on their core strengths while relying on expert partners for execution. The featured speakers will unpack why this approach is gaining traction: reducing exposure to supply chain weakness, improving production agility and strengthening innovation models. Real-world examples will show how companies have avoided major CapEx pitfalls, expanded capacity on demand and launched new products with minimal investment.
Attendees will also see how asset-light frameworks deliver flexibility, operational focus and built-in scalability. The featured speakers will also explore how dual-site manufacturing protects supply, how redundant capacity prevents seasonal congestion and how localized production shortens the path to market, all while supporting quality and compliance. The session also highlights integrated scientific and engineering resources that help partners innovate without building internal infrastructure.
