According to Deloitte, approximately 50% of biotech/pharma collaborations will fail, part of what leads to that failure is ambiguity in communication. "Where did this result come from?", "What was the protocol used in this experiment?", "What does this value represent?"
At Aspen Biosciences, our Pipeline platform makes it easy for drug discovery companies, CROs, and pharmas to collaborate and share data seamlessly, using a common, industry-standard vocabulary.
4. About Us
Aspen Biosciences is an international
consultancy, founded in 2009.
We provide software and services to drug
discovery and diagnostics companies:
custom software development
systems integrations
technology roadmaps.
8. Design, Make, Test, Analyze Therapeutics
Risks: Interdisciplinary Teams that share
hand-off points in a workflow often dont
realize that theyre not speaking the same
language.
Impacts:
Wasted time and effort
Increased Expense
Project Delays
AI/ML Models Based On Faulty Data
9. CROs & Service Providers
Risks: Differences in the way in
which a protocol is run at a
customers lab and at a CRO can
adversely affect both parties.
Impacts:
Expensive decisions made
based on faulty data.
Rework needed.
Project delays.
Loss of confidence
10. Pharmaceutical Collaborators
Risks: Collaborations between biotech and
pharmaceutical companies often revolve
around cutting edge new methods, platform
technologies, and modalities.
Pharmaceutical companies view the value of
these collaborations in terms of learnings and
potential earnings.
Impacts: Transparency is critical in both in
terms of what the data represents and how it
was generated. A lack of transparency can
lead to rework, a difficult working relationship,
or the breakdown of the relationship.
11. Pharmaceutical Collaborators
half of pharmaceutical collaborations
failnot because the science falls
short, but because poor alliance
management leads to missteps,
missed deadlines, lack of trust, and
ultimately, collapse of the
relationship itself

12. Collaboration Trends
The number of biotech-pharma
collaborations continue to increase
year over year.
Emerging biopharma companies
(EBPs) those with an estimated
expenditure on R&D of less than $200
million and less than $500 million in
revenue annually are responsible
for a record 65% of the molecules in
the R&D pipeline, up from less than
50% in 2016 and one-third in 2001

13. Investors
Risks: Investors & potential
collaborators need to be able to find
and analyze pipeline information in
order to identify potential
investments. Collaborators need to
find potential partners for assets.
Impacts: missed opportunities
