Webinar on "Towards a Global Community to Promote Antimicrobial Drug Research and Development" *Finished Promoting Antibacterial Drug Development through Public-Private Partnership - Information Exchange Meeting with the INCubator for Antibacterial Therapies in Europe (INCATE)
November 10, 2025
The Infectious Diseases Group of the Global Health Committee of the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association of Japan (PAPJ), in cooperation with INCATE (INCubator for Antibacterial Therapies in Europe), will hold a webinar entitled "Promoting Antibacterial Drug Development through Public-Private Partnership - Information Exchange Meeting with the INCubator for Antibacterial Therapies in Europe (INCATE)". The group will discuss the following topics
The group is also working to support drug discovery in academia to promote the discovery of drugs for drug-resistant (AMR) bacteria in Japan. In Japan, the Japan Agency for Medical Research and Development (AMED) is playing a central role in providing various types of support, but this webinar was planned with the belief that the utilization of overseas communities and funds will contribute to the acceleration of future research and development.
INCATE is an incubator specializing in antimicrobials established in Europe in 2021. INCATE provides professional advice, business planning and funding support to researchers and start-ups, and has formed a community of industry, academia and policy makers.
In this webinar, INCATE will introduce the activities of the organization, as well as case studies from Japan on the research and development of small molecule antimicrobial agents and bacteriophage-based therapeutics for AMR. We look forward to discussions among the participants on effective measures to promote future research and development. We hope that this will be a useful forum for those who are conducting research and development for AMR in Japan.
Although the time of the meeting will be a little late because it is co-hosted with Europe, we hope you will be able to join us.
