CEM’s technology for peptide production utilizes automated large-scale microwave solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) systems that have been established for improving peptide purity and minimizing excess reagents needed. Additionally, CEM has developed proprietary coupling methodologies optimized for elevated temperature reactions2 , a unique way to combine the coupling and deprotection reactions into a single step3 , and established the use of greener solvents that are more accessible using elevated temperatures4 . These unique technology benefits will be licensed to AmbioPharm for GMP production.
AmbioPharm is a recognized leader in cGMP peptide production. The company employs more than 675 employees and recently completed a major expansion at its headquarters in South Carolina, US, adding nearly 56,000 sq. ft of additional peptide manufacturing capacity. The production facility has the purification capability of up to 30 kg/batch and a lyophilization capacity of up to 1,000L. The CEM Liberty Pro synthesizer offers differing reactor sizes (3, 8 and 15 liter) allowing synthesis of batches from 5 g to 500 g of final peptide.
“Peptide based drugs have enormous potential for the future and we are excited to contribute to improving their production process. AmbioPharm is an ideal partner, and we believe this relationship will provide enhanced capabilities for the production of peptide therapeutics.” - Michael J. Collins, Ph.D., President & CEO of CEM Corporation.
“With the addition of CEM’s microwave technology into our GMP peptide manufacturing options, we can offer even better service in terms of expedited delivery for our partners’ products as well as unique capabilities for making longer and more complex peptides accessible with microwave methods.” - Chris Bai, Ph.D., CEO of AmbioPharm Inc.
Both companies will be exhibiting at the upcoming TIDES USA conference in September 2021.

Unleash Raises $35M Led by One Peak to Help Enterprises Ship AI-driven Software Faster, Safer, and Smarter4.3.2026 15:00:00 CET | Press release
Unleash, the open-source FeatureOps company, today announced a $35 million Series B financing led by One Peak, with participation from existing investors Spark Capital, Frontline Ventures, and Firstminute Capital. The new funding will be used to accelerate product innovation and global expansion as enterprises confront the opportunities and risks of AI-accelerated software delivery. AI has dramatically accelerated software development, creating a generational opportunity for anyone in an enterprise to turn ideas, prompts, and prototypes into applications. But AI has also outpaced the systems designed to control software delivery. DORA research shows that a 25% rise in AI adoption correlates with a 7% drop in software stability. Enterprises are shipping code 2-3x faster with AI, yet outages caused by uncontrolled feature rollouts and missing kill switches are costing businesses millions in lost revenue, prolonged customer downtime, and brand damage. FeatureOps is emerging as the missing
