Cell and gene therapies are life-changing treatments that hold the potential to address cancer and autoimmune diseases, but manufacturing remains difficult to scale with time-intensive processes and variability that can impact throughput and cost. Multiply Labs is developing robotics-first biomanufacturing systems intended to bring greater consistency, traceability, and operational efficiency to advanced therapy production—so personalized treatments can be more broadly accessible.
Multiply Labs’ systems use four robotic arms operating in parallel to maximize output in existing facilities, targeting up to 100x more patient doses per square foot of cleanroom space compared to traditional manual processes.
To accelerate development, Multiply Labs’ integration of NVIDIA robotics and AI infrastructure covers three core areas:
“Advanced biomanufacturing is one of the highest value applications for robots. That puts us in a fortunate position to be able to invest in the most cutting-edge robotic technologies that exist,” said Fred Parietti, co-founder and CEO at Multiply Labs. “By combining our robotic approach to biomanufacturing with NVIDIA’s state-of-the-art simulation, perception, and foundation model technologies, we accelerate development and unlock the next level of scalability for hardware and software systems, driving our robots towards broader patient impact.”
“Advanced biomanufacturing is a powerful frontier for physical AI, where robotics and AI can help scale the manufacturing of therapies that can help patients across the world,” said Stacie Calad-Thomson, North America Business Development Lead, Healthcare and Life Sciences, NVIDIA. “Multiply Labs, leveraging NVIDIA AI infrastructure, is helping accelerate biomanufacturing automation designed to increase reliability and scalability for advanced therapies—and translate advances in physical AI into meaningful patient impact.”
