Expert Support from First Run to Full Scale

Whether you’re launching your AAV process or ready to scale, we’re here to help set your therapy up for manufacturing success.

Your Collaborative Partner from Idea to Impact

We know that no two gene therapy programs are alike, which is why biotech companies need a manufacturing collaborator with deep expertise across serotypes, indications, and scales—and solutions for every stage of your program.

Our process development and cGMP scale-up and scale-down capabilities support a commercial suspension platform. From technology transfer to fill-finish—Forge has you covered.

We Help Scale Your Gene Therapies

With numerous development studies, scales, and AAV grades available to shape manufacturing pathways and reach key milestones, a common two-fold question we hear from biotech developers is: “Where do I start, and will it work?” We help navigate these decisions and scale programs with confidence — from selecting the right approach and leveraging our FUEL™ platform to optimizing for yield and driving toward commercial success.
