About the On-demand session
The downstream bioprocessing industry is evolving rapidly, driven by increasing molecule complexity, higher titers, and growing pressure for more flexible and efficient manufacturing approaches.
In response to these industry shifts, we invite you to the Downstream Virtual Summit 2026, bringing together our experience of more than five decades we will offer you an opportunity to explore what’s new—and what’s next—in downstream bioprocessing.

What is DiPIA?
DiPIA, or Developments in Protein Interaction Analysis, is a global scientific conference hosted by Cytiva. We bring peers together from across the industry to share best practices, research, and new applications. This conference is dedicated to the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology as featured in our Biacore™ SPR systems.
The theme for this year’s DiPIA is Exploring the Unknown. Expect to see the past, present, and future of exploration. Stay tuned for more updates on the theme as the event nears.
