Reflecting on the Definitive TPD Forum 2026: Advancing the Future of Induced Proximity

With 6 tracks spanning Research Breakthroughs, Discovery, Preclinical Development, Translational and Clinical Development, Latest Tools & Technology and the Future of Induced Proximity, the summit served as a one-stop TPD shop for attendees to get up to speed with the latest platform technologies, accelerate R&D pipelines, validate novel ligases, and achieve clinical success for the next wave of proximity-based drugs.

Everyone who is anyone in the TPD field gathered once again under one roof. With 300+ attendees across academia, start‑ups, biotechs, pharma, and solution providers, the meeting provided direct access to the full TPD ecosystem. Attendees connected with leaders from Arvinas, Nurix Therapeutics, Monte Rosa Therapeutics, and more alongside pioneers unveiling novel platforms poised to transform the field.

Whether it was their first or ninth time attending this forum, attendees came together to tackle the challenges shaping key decisions, explore the tremendous opportunity TPD holds, and forge partnerships that will help patients with urgent unmet needs.
