At AbbVie, we partner to achieve two important outcomes: to deliver innovative medicines and to make a remarkable impact on people’s lives.
We start with a highly integrated approach to developing and sustaining our partnerships. We work as one connected unit with a commitment to establishing collaborations across the development continuum that will ultimately benefit patients and fuel scientific progress.
Our goal is to create long-term mutually beneficial relationships. With a shared vision as our foundation, we align our collective capabilities in service of a joint mission to bring innovative medicines that solve serious health issues today and address the medical challenges of tomorrow.
From start to finish, we ensure that everyone from working teams through senior leadership is aware of and invested in nurturing the assets we develop together. We manage for success—from early identification and mitigation of risks to shared accountability and reward for successful outcomes.
We focus on identifying and evaluating new opportunities that complement and enhance our existing internal innovation strategies. S&E works in close partnership with our R&D and commercial teams, BD&A and Ventures to thoughtfully address each opportunity.
We evaluate a variety of partnership structures to meet the needs of both parties. BD&A works closely with S&E, and our commercial and R&D organizations to evaluate new opportunities.
Highly successful partnerships result from an ongoing commitment to realize a shared vision. At AbbVie, we have a dedicated team that is involved in all aspects of the partnership from contracting through commercialization.
We strategically invest in transformational scientific opportunities to augment our core R&D interests and gain access to next-generation science and proven scientific leaders. Our expertise in drug development and commercialization can be a valuable resource to even the earliest stage companies
Our team is ready to meet with you to share our capabilities and discuss your business opportunities. We are always looking for innovation and new partnership opportunities that align with our focus areas. With offices in the Northern California, Chicago and Boston areas, as well as other locations around the world, we look forward to hearing from you.
