Pistoia Alliance Introduction & Strategy Update
Nick Lynch, President, Pistoia Alliance (AstraZeneca)
2011 is a watershed year for the Alliance. We have completed two feasibility studies and are sponsoring several new initiatives that will build on these learnings. Pistoia-led outcomes have the potential to transform precompetitive R&D, making it more open and collaborative and providing a platform upon which organizations can innovate in the ways most suited to their goals.
