Eliminate bias from opportunity selection

Teams review 50-100+ innovation proposals quarterly. Without standardized evaluation, success depends more on who presents than what's presented.

Deploy collaborative assessment workflows where stakeholders apply consistent scoring criteria, document concerns systematically, and fund opportunities with genuine merit.

Your next breakthrough might come from outside your walls

Leading pharma organizations source 50% of their innovation pipeline externally, because partnering is faster and cheaper than building everything in-house.

Create submission portals where startups, universities, and partners can propose solutions. Evaluate them alongside internal projects using the same rating frameworks, then fast-track the best partnerships into your pipeline.

Make your strategic intel visible & valuable - not hidden in docs

Insights that stay in PDFs don't bring change or inspire collaboration.

Publish your findings as interactive radars that teams can explore, filter, and discuss. Make your intelligence visible across the organization and beyond, signaling your strategic direction to potential innovation partners.

Don't let prioritized opportunities become abandoned projects

87% of approved opportunities never reach production. Without clear plans, portfolios are graveyards of good intentions.

Turn prioritized opportunities into executable roadmaps with clear ownership, milestone tracking, and resource allocation. Connect strategic decisions to team calendars so opportunities move from "approved" to "in progress" to "launched."
