Join the Pistoia Alliance
Driving collaboration in life science R&D
A global, not-for-profit members’ organization working to lower barriers to innovation in life science and healthcare R&D.
Founded over a decade ago, The Pistoia Alliance brings together more than 100 member companies from life science companies, technology and service providers, publishers, and academic groups to transform R&D through pre-competitive collaboration.
Together, we overcome common R&D obstacles by identifying root causes, developing standards and best practices, sharing pre-competitive data and knowledge, and executing technology pilots. From AI to chemical safety to data standards, members collaborate on projects of significant value for the worldwide life sciences R&D community, using The Pistoia Alliance’s framework for open innovation. Any company that can contribute in some form to life sciences discovery is welcome in the Pistoia Alliance.
