Published

on

–News Direct–

AGC Biologics, a leading global Biopharmaceutical Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO), today announced at BIO International the completion of its new manufacturing building at the AGC Biologics Copenhagen campus. The completed work doubles the sites single-use bioreactor capacity for mammalian services and allows it to produce 150 more batches of drug product each year.

The expansion adds 19,000 m2 of space in an ultramodern building that houses a large manufacturing floor, expanded quality control and process development lab space, utilities to support all operations and prevent outages caused by natural disasters, and a fully dedicated warehouse to serve the entire AGC Biologics Copenhagen campus.

The new AGC Biologics Copenhagen manufacturing building is already in production with its first customer, a phase II/III clinical product. AGC Biologics announced the planned expansion in November 2020, investing roughly $200 million into the work.

One-of-a-kind single-use manufacturing offering

The new manufacturing area offers 8 x 2,000 L single-use bioreactors with two seed trains, as well as two independent downstream suites [CW1] more than doubling the existing capacity offered at this site for mammalian-based projects.

AGC Biologics Copenhagen is now one of the only sites in the world with multiple single-use bioreactor systems of this magnitude capable of producing batches at high-levels of clinical and commercial production. Further, for developers needing to transfer in an existing process, AGC Biologics Copenhagens multiple single-use suites give the site greater flexibility to take on technical transfers and perform like-for-like process and knowledge activities for products entering the facility, eliminating lag time associated with onboarding a new CDMO.

AGC Biologics has been a leader in single-use technology over the last decade, and it is one of the largest CDMO networks in the industry offering flexible and scalable single-use bioreactors systems.

The news comes after AGC Biologics announced an end-to-end protein biologics drug product partnership with Dutch-based BioConnection in late May. The alliance provides a secure and full-service gene-to-vial offering for biopharma developers with drug substance development, manufacturing and aseptic fill and finish capabilities for drug products.

AGC Biologics Copenhagen site continues to be one of the most active in our network with all the necessary commercial approvals FDA, EMA, HCA, PMDA, ANVISA etc. and we are more than happy to offer the capacity and capabilities our current and future customers will look for with this completed expansion, said Christoph Winterhalter, CBO, AGC Biologics. The expansion, combined with our new drug product alliance, demonstrates AGC Biologics agility to meet all the needs developers may have, from pre-clinical through commercial.

AGC Biologics Copenhagen site core teams of scientists have more than 25 years of expertise in biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing, including seven commercial products brought to market. The site offers pre-clinical through commercial production for protein biologics services using mammalian and microbial systems. It has a gold EcoVadis Sustainability Rating for its environmental, health and sustainability practices.

Revolutionizing Earnings: How Play-to-Earn (P2E) Games Are Transforming the Gaming Industry

Published

on

The gaming industry is undergoing a seismic shift as Play-to-Earn (P2E) models redefine how players interact with virtual worlds. Unlike traditional games, where time and skill investments yield no real-world value, blockchain-powered P2E games allow users to earn cryptocurrency, NFTs, and other digital assets simply by playing.

This innovation is not just changing gaming—it’s creating a new economic paradigm where entertainment and income generation merge. From developing nations to high-tech economies, P2E is empowering players to monetize their gaming expertise, turning hobbies into viable careers.

The Rise of Play-to-Earn: From Niche to Mainstream

The concept of earning through gaming isn’t entirely new, but blockchain technology has supercharged its potential. Early pioneers like Axie Infinity demonstrated that players could generate substantial income, especially in regions with limited job opportunities. The game’s “scholarship” system, where asset owners lend NFTs to players in exchange for a share of earnings, became a lifeline for many during economic downturns.

Key factors driving P2E adoption include:

  • True Digital Ownership – Blockchain ensures players fully own in-game assets, which can be traded or sold.
  • Decentralized Economies – Games like The Sandbox and Gods Unchained allow players to influence in-game economies through governance tokens.
  • Global Accessibility – With just an internet connection, anyone can participate, breaking down traditional employment barriers.

A recent analysis by Pinco highlights how P2E gaming is accelerating financial inclusion, particularly in emerging markets where conventional job opportunities are scarce. The report underscores that blockchain gaming could soon rival traditional gig economies in scale and impact.

The Economic Impact of P2E Gaming

The Play-to-Earn revolution is creating profound economic shifts that extend far beyond gaming communities. By introducing verifiable digital ownership and decentralized marketplaces, P2E models are challenging traditional notions of work and value creation in the digital age. These new economic systems are particularly transformative in developing economies, where they provide alternative income streams that are more accessible than conventional employment options.

  1. A New Class of Digital Workers. Professional gamers, NFT traders, and guild managers are now legitimate careers. In countries like the Philippines and Venezuela, players earn more through P2E games than local minimum wages.
  2. The Growth of Gaming Guilds. Organizations like Yield Guild Games (YGG) provide players with NFTs and training, taking a share of their earnings in return. This model has spawned a new form of decentralized employment.
  3. Mainstream Corporate Interest. Major brands (Nike, Adidas, Atari) are entering the space, launching NFT collections and virtual experiences, further legitimizing P2E economies.

The sustainability of these new economic models will depend on their ability to maintain fair reward structures while preventing inflationary pressures common to many token-based systems. As the sector matures, we’re seeing increased institutional interest, with venture capital firms and traditional gaming companies investing heavily in P2E infrastructure.

The Future of P2E: Beyond Gaming

The success of P2E is inspiring other industries to adopt similar models. Concepts like “Learn-to-Earn” (educational platforms rewarding users with crypto) and “Create-to-Earn” (decentralized content monetization) are emerging, proving that blockchain-based incentive systems have far-reaching applications.

As technology evolves, we may see deeper integration between P2E games and DeFi (Decentralized Finance), allowing players to stake, lend, and borrow against their in-game assets. This could further blur the lines between gaming and traditional finance.

Play-to-Earn is more than a trend—it’s a fundamental reimagining of value exchange in digital spaces. By merging entertainment with real-world earnings, blockchain gaming is setting the stage for a future where virtual and physical economies coexist seamlessly.
