To unlock and prime innovation, we are always listening and engaging with the consumer to ensure that all our products meet a demand. In doing so, the data that we accumulate is large, broad, and complex. InveniAI has helped us look at tasks that are datacentric across technology road-mapping, search and evaluation, and identifying and understanding new science. AI and ML have helped create efficiencies that shave 4-5 years off the innovation cycle as well as eliminate human biases in identifying innovation.”

This customized platform delivers tremendous business value by not only rapidly assimilating large volumes of disparate data sets to facilitate a first-mover advantage, but also releases expert human resources at GSK to focus on higher-value tasks.
