Collaborative R&D: Partnerships shaping the future of biopharma
Biotechs and pharma companies face rising costs of drug development, depleting R&D pipelines and diminishing returns on investment. By joining forces and exploring collaborative R&D partnerships it is possible to overcome these challenges. In addition to sharing risks, they share the potential rewards when their assets move further into clinical development or come to the market.

Quantum Computing: Future of diagnostics is being coded today
A silent revolution is being built at the intersection of biology and quantum physics. After decades of pushing the boundaries of diagnostics with advanced imaging and AI, we are now approaching a hard computational wall. For complex conditions like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and many cancers, the interacting variables of genomics, proteomics, and real-world patient data are simply too vast for classical computers to master. This limitation caps the ability to move from merely spotting correlations to uncovering true causation. Unlike traditional AI, quantum computing can simulate underlying physical systems to derive precise solutions. The transition from correlational analysis to causal simulation will enable a more valuable and advanced frontier in diagnostics.
