Not to be confused with an accelerator or incubator, we allow teams to co-develop digital solutions alongside specific therapeutic offerings, research activities, and business processes within Novartis. At the same time, we provide external innovators with the resources and opportunities they need to validate their solutions through access to regulatory, medical or legal expertise, as well as data sandboxes linked to over two million patient years of clinical trial data, and in some cases, investment and financing.

We’re committed to collaborating with the tech ecosystem and through the Novartis Biome will provide an on-ramp to make working with Novartis easier, as well as a sandbox for developing scalable digital solutions to healthcare challenges.”
