Ortent Life Sciences Radar research beta

The radar compares what 25 large pharma and biotech R&D spenders say in public about two things: AI and computation in drug discovery, and the digitalisation of their research labs and scientific data. Each company gets two scores for each theme. Priority is how much weight the company puts on the theme in its own disclosures, on a scale of 1 to 10. Delivery is how far its published evidence shows the work running, from 0 to 10. Open any company to see the quotes and links behind its scores.

The scores come only from public information up to 6 October 2026. They are Ortent's assessment and have not been independently validated. A low score can mean a company says little in public, or that we could not reach some of its sources, so the coverage status sits next to every score. If you know of public information we missed, report it at the foot of the page and we will review it at the next quarterly refresh.

No eligible company disclosure identified for this theme in the reviewed sources and period

This is not a finding that these companies are inactive. Their account briefs show what we searched and any related activity we recorded as context.

Report new information

Tell us about a public source we missed, or a correction to a company's entry. We only use information anyone can read: company releases, filings, results materials, partner announcements and similar. Nothing you send appears on the radar automatically. We check every report and include what holds up in the next quarterly refresh.

How the scores work. Scores follow Ortent's rubric, summarised on the method page. Only evidence dated inside the window counts. Job adverts, vendor marketing, undated pages and private knowledge never count. For this radar, process and CMC development are grouped with manufacturing and excluded from the research-lab theme. The full method and a brief for each company are on the method page.

Status. Research beta. Ortent built and reviewed this research; it has not been independently validated. The radar does not predict who will buy, and it does not measure how mature a company's operations are.

Disclosure. Andrew Wyatt, Ortent's principal, was Chief Growth Officer at Sapio Sciences, a lab software company, until April 2026. He has no current relationship with, or financial interest in, Sapio or any other supplier.
