Through our application of science-based expertise, evidence-led rigor, and human experience-driven insight, our digital solutions are deliberately designed so that everyone can reach better health outcomes together. Evinova is a separate health-tech business within the AstraZeneca Group.

Our History

• We made strategic investments in digital health to improve patient experience and accelerate getting new medicines to patients.

• Digital transformation is happening at pace within the healthcare industry, but we experienced first-hand that there were gaps in terms of the solutions currently available, which were not fully meeting the needs of patients, clinical trial sites, or sponsors.

• We recognized that the sector needs mature, established solutions that seamlessly integrate different elements into long-lasting solutions. So, we decided to do something about it.

• We originally invested in creating a portfolio of novel digital solutions to accelerate our drug portfolio and improve our patient and site experience and outcomes, with demonstrated benefits (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-023-02489-z)

• We now see the opportunity to combine our scientific leadership with the digital expertise and technologies we have developed to offer a range of digital health solutions to the industry.

• We are therefore establishing an independent health-tech business with the long-term backing of AstraZeneca

• Evinova- to bring these solutions to market at scale.

• In so doing, we are focusing on the huge potential for digital health to transform our collective effectiveness and fundamentally improve how new treatments are developed and how people are diagnosed and treated.

Why Evinova (AstraZeneca)?

Evinova draws on AstraZeneca's deep experience developing novel therapeutics, informed by insights from thousands of patients and clinical researchers. Together, we can accelerate the delivery of life-changing medicines, improve the design and delivery of clinical trials for better patient experiences and outcomes, and think more holistically about patient care before, during, and after treatment. We know that regulators, healthcare professionals, and care teams at clinical trial sites do not want a fragmented approach. They do not want a future where every pharmaceutical company provides its own, different digital solutions. They want solutions that work across the sector, simplify their workload, and benefit patients broadly. By bringing our solutions to the wider healthcare community, we can help build more unified approaches to how we all develop and deploy digital technologies, better serving our teams, physicians, and ultimately patients. Evinova represents a unique opportunity to deliver meaningful outcomes with digital and AI to serve the wider healthcare community and create new standards for the sector.  Join us on our journey of building a new kind of health-tech business to reset expectations of what a bio-pharmaceutical company can be. This means we're opening new ways to work, pioneering cutting-edge methods, and bringing unexpected teams together. Interested? Come and join our journey.
