âť“Can you describe the situation Sanofi was facing when you first connected with Invest Ontario?

➡️ Sanofi has been rapidly expanding our AI capabilities, and we reached an inflection point. We reached out for external support to capitalize on this momentum.

➡️ Ontario's AI ecosystem offers unparalleled opportunities for collaboration across industry partners, talent networks, and academia. We're looking to connect with organizations across the ecosystem to build partnerships that strengthen Ontario's position as a global AI hub. This collaborative approach allows us to support Ontario's AI ecosystem through our contributions through our biopharma expertise to advance innovation across sectors.

➡️ The most exciting aspect of this expansion is the opportunity to build AI capabilities that directly accelerate how medicines reach patients - through initiatives ranging from automating regulatory documentation to deploying conversational AI in clinical trials to real-time pharmacovigilance. This expansion creates opportunities for professionals to tackle problems at a scale and complexity that drives meaningful impact across the Ontario's Biopharma AI ecosystem.
