Shining a light on LNPs for targeted
and extrahepatic delivery

Collaboratively unlocking the potential of LNP technology to deliver novel payloads
to specific organs, tissues and cells.

A pre-competitive network for the LNP biopharma community

designed by LNP biopharma community

LNPs ability to deliver cargo beyond mRNA to previously undruggable targets holds the potential to unlock unimaginable treatments. However, with the field evolving at lightning speed, along with unclear guidelines and a lack of established best practice, siloed innovation alone has been insufficient in overcoming critical challenges to unlock the potential of LNP technology to deliver novel payloads – from nucleic acids to gene therapy - to specific organs, tissues, and cells, hampering the chances of clinical success. 

The LNP Targeted Delivery Searchlight network has been created by the global LNP biopharma community to increase the frequency of collaboration and pre-competitive knowledge sharing, bridge the gap between companies and get novel therapies to patients as quickly as possible. 

Being part of the network provides you with timely access to new ideas and knowledge to help refine your thoughts and bolster your concepts. You will be able to engage in meaningful pre-competitive discussions that empowers you to make better decisions with more confidence and avoid costly mistakes. 

Join the LNP Targeted Delivery Searchlight network to collaborate with industry leaders, leverage their expertise, and drive innovation forward.

Business-defining Dialogues

Virtual Cornerstone Workshops

We facilitate, structured, discussion-driven, LNP-focused quarterly meetings for member companies. 

Each high-impact 90-minute meeting takes place virtually via Zoom. The meeting agenda is carefully curated and focused on the topics and critical challenges requested by Searchlight members. 

Member companies are represented by one internal champion with strategic oversight over its LNP-based programs and technologies to ensure that each discussion is high-value, high-impact, and delivers tangible outputs for members to take back to their organization.  

Innovation doesn't happen in isolation

Searchlight makes meaningful progress

“I want to be part of this initiative to connect with other players in the field and work together to define standards and align on methods that could be helpful for the whole field.”

“When you discuss issues and approaches together it brings everyone to the same page and then you collectively think of what the next steps could be, share that with the broader community to move the field forward.”


“We're all individual competitors here but in the end we're all working towards the same goal which is developing efficacious and safe medicines for patients that need them.”
