Our take

Clinical drug trials are lengthy and expensive, delaying the supply of vital new drugs to patients and costing lives. For Formation Bio, this is an efficiency issue - one which it hopes to solve with its end-to-end automation solution.

According to the company, its approach has teams running medical trials twice as fast and at half the cost. It's worked so well, in fact, that Formation Bio is looking to take drug development in-house.

Now a Unicorn, the company has secured heavyweights like Pfizer, Sanofi, Novartis and 23andMe as partners. Precisely how it will fare in the Big Pharma ecosystem remains to be seen, but the promise of cheaper drugs and faster innovation is certainly causing a stir in a market that has historically been resistant to both.
