  • Pharma Asset Insights POWERED by SCRIP and in VIVO
    Pharma intelligence Pharma Asset Insights POWERED BY SCRIP AND IN VIVO Bringing science innovation and partnering news to the biopharmaceutical business community Pharma intelligence Innovation in the pharmaceutical industry has never been more exciting, and complicated. Disruptive technologies, such as artificial intelligence and digital health tools, and advanced therapeutic modalities including cell and gene therapies and antisense oligonucleotides demand that all health care stakeholders make efforts to move into the next generation of patient care and centricity. Funding for start-ups has reached an inflection point, with venture capital money flowing into companies at a rapid speed and at record-high amounts, particularly for those located in Europe. In 2013 only three life science venture capital rounds surpassed $100 million; by the first quarter of 2018, those financings have become more of the rule than the exception, as 10 venture rounds worth over $100 million were completed, led by a massive $500 million late-stage funding from Moderna Therapeutics. Many of these firms have progressed to the IPO stage, where markets have been very favorable over the past couple years. Indeed, 11 biopharma IPOs netted an aggregate $1 billion in Q1 2018, and included a $56 million offering from BioXcel Therapeutics, which is using artificial intelligence to identify the most promising neurological and immune-oncology drug candidates to advance. Overall, companies involved in mining and applying predictive analytics to big datasets have been well funded recently, including BenevolentAI, which closed on a $115 million financing, and Pear Therapeutics, a digital health company that has raised $50 million and signed on Novartis to market its reSET digital therapeutics product for substance abuse.

  • Insurance Technology Four Trillion Dollar Industry Finally Goes Digital
    Insurance Technology Four Trillion Dollar Industry Finally Goes Digital Greg Roth, Partner Ben Howe, CEO Matei Sanders, Principal Catch the Wave . Insurance Technology is riding a wave of innovation and investment that is attempting to do in a few short years what the insurance industry itself has failed to do over the last decade: a complete digital migration across all business processes . With $4.6 Trillion in global annual premiums, or 5.6% of global GDP, the insurance industry is a highly attractive market where incumbents have been slow to embrace innovation . There are three competitive threats at work in the insurance market and they all point to Technology Disruption: (1) an explosion of well funded, InsureTech startups; (2) the feared entry of the B2C tech “titans” (i.e. Google, Amazon, Facebook, etc.); and (3) incumbents racing to adopt modern enabling technologies . Investors can sense the opportunity: InsureTech investments are up six-fold over the last five years across at all stages of funding . Whereas this first wave has primarily focused on distribution, a second wave is taking aim at how insurance products are designed, priced, and operated . Incumbents’ initial reaction has been to partner and invest mostly in enabling technology . These market forces point to increased M&A activity as customer demand will make InsureTech solutions key to an insurer’s customer acquisition and retention strategy (# of Private Insurance Tech Investments Ramping Placements) 200 173 150 122 100 91 63 46 50 28 0 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 Source: Capital IQ, CB Insights 2 Investment in Technology Pays Dividends Investment in Technology Translates to .

The programme addresses three key factors relevant to the Yorkshire & Humber region: • the opportunity to develop investment markets, especially for companies in complex and challenging markets such as healthcare; • the opportunity to engage talented business support professionals able to provide advice and guidance on raising finance in general and especially in this sector; and • a shortage of existing successfully venture backed companies to act as role models, explain the process and showcase the benefits. The programme is scheduled to run for an initial period of three years from January 2009 and is delivered by a consortium of three companies, led by Grant Thornton UK LLP and including Quotec and BITECIC.
