Speaking session

Dive into BioTechX themes

Innovation – what’s next, and why it matters

Innovation isn’t just a buzzword—it’s changing the game for businesses and the world around us. We’re diving into what innovation really means for businesses today, especially when it comes to building a creative culture, tackling sustainability, and exploring cutting-edge tech like synthetic biology, the metaverse, quantum tech, and blockchain. Whether you’re looking to stay ahead of the curve in business or just curious about what the future holds, we’ve got interesting content for you.

CRISPR for a better world

The Capgemini Research Institute spoke with Dr. Jennifer Doudna, Nobel Prize laureate and Professor of Biomedical Science, University of California, Berkeley.

In this interview, Dr. Doudna offers a clear understanding of CRISPR and its applications, and talks about how CRISPR can be used for a better world.

Accelerating Medicine R&D Cycles

Capgemini and Sanofi set a new industry standard by accelerating clinical trials with the Act4Patients program.

Clinical development

The clinical drug development market is rich with innovations such as cell and gene therapies, digital therapeutics, personalized medicine, biomarkers, and the integration of drugs and medical devices. Despite these advancements, many life sciences organizations struggle to fully benefit from them. This new era of opportunity also brings increased complexity, emphasizing the need to address core challenges related to access, speed, and effectiveness. As the clinical landscape grows more complex and competitive, it is crucial to adopt transformative strategies, advanced digital and data capabilities, and innovative trial designs to achieve next-gen clinical trials and expedite drug development success.

In this point of view we explore one key element of the development cycle – the clinical trial – and how the emergence of powerful new digital and data capabilities, as well as new trial designs, can help companies increase program efficiency, speed, and access, driving outcomes for both the business and patients.

Gen AI

Generative AI (GenAI) and other forms of Artificial intelligence (AI) are creating new opportunities to reshape the future. In the world of the data economy, organizations are embracing new landscapes of connectivity, interactions, and creations. To stay ahead they are combining data with artificial intelligence, to explore new ways of working, producing, consuming and communicating – our future. Generative AI, with its extraordinary potential, is the new contributor to this shake-up.

But how can we experience the full transformational benefits of AI while remaining ethical, protecting society and the planet, and creating a more sustainable, trustworthy, and better future for everyone? 

Generative AI for life sciences

Now is the time for life sciences organizations to plan their GenAI strategy and explore carefully selected use cases in a controlled environment, so they’re ready to reap this technology’s significant benefits while not exposing themselves to unnecessary risk.
