In 2015, we pioneered a “moneyball for biotech” approach, pooling projects and promising early‑stage research from academia together under one financial umbrella to reduce risk and unleash innovation. This model allows science and small teams of experts to lead the way. We build bridges to groundbreaking advancements in rare disease, and develop life‑changing medicines for patients with unmet needs as fast as humanly possible.
