At the 5th International Symposium on Frontiers in Molecular Science (Kyoto, 26–29 August 2025), Dr. Florian Kongoli, President of FLOGEN Technologies, delivered a keynote on integrating sustainability into molecular science and drug development.
He presented the FLOGEN Sustainability Framework, which ensures that every innovation meets three essential pillars:
Environmental Protection
Economic Development
Social Development
Dr. Kongoli emphasized how AI and accelerated research make drug development faster, more sustainable, and more affordable, particularly for diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s.
He also addressed a pressing healthcare issue: medical errors and malpractice. In high-income countries, 1 in 10 patients is harmed during hospital care, and nearly 30% of these cases result in death, while only a fraction of victims ever receive justice. Dr. Kongoli argued that data science, technology, and structured sustainability frameworks are crucial to reducing harm and achieving true progress in healthcare.
