Summary

CEPI and Samsung Biologics have formed a partnership with a $20 million initial budget to strengthen vaccine manufacturing preparedness, particularly for low- and middle-income countries. Samsung Biologics joins CEPI's Vaccine Manufacturing Facility Network as its first East Asian partner, focusing on scalable recombinant-protein vaccine manufacturing using mammalian cell-based infrastructure. The collaboration supports CEPI's 100 Days Mission to enable rapid vaccine deployment against future pandemic threats.

Key Points

  • Samsung Biologics becomes CEPI's first East Asian manufacturing partner, joining organizations from Brazil, India, Indonesia, South Africa, and Senegal in the VMFN.
  • Partnership backed by an initial $20 million budget to develop scalable recombinant-protein vaccine manufacturing processes.
  • Supports CEPI's 100 Days Mission: building infrastructure to develop and deploy vaccines within 100 days of a new pandemic threat.
  • Focus on improving vaccine access and manufacturing capacity in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
  • Leverages Samsung's mammalian cell-based infrastructure for rapid scaling in response to emerging viral threats.
