challenges as they strive to create best-in-class customer and employee experiences while tackling a rapid increase in cross-sector pollination.In doing this,these organizations must consider new ways of looking at technology that accelerates time-to-market,and augments goals of efficient servicing and proper management of operations,risk,and compliance.Already tasked with managing a plethora of networks,devices,and applications critical to business growth,IT teams have now been elevated to a more strategic role,charged with driving multiple digital transformation initiatives often with little increase in team capacity or resources.These technology challenges are not unique to the financial services and insurance sector,which means IT leaders are in high-demand.As a result,IT retention grows more challenging every year and can impact innovation if unaddressed.But IT teams dont need to throw in the towel leveraging the right technology strategy with easy-to-use tools that empower everyone can help mitigate these challenges and drive improved business results.Dhiren Tiwari,Partner,PwC SAY A BEST-OF-BREED APPROACH HAS LED TO IT COMPLEXITY.725%PLAN TO INCREASE USE OF

fully AI-based Preclinical Candidate.Initial hypothesis was build via DNN analysis of omics and clinical datasets of patients.After that company used its AI PandaOmics engine for target discovery,analyzing all relevant data,including patents and research publications with NLP algorithms.In the next step Insilico has applied its generative chemistry module(Chemistry42)in order to design a library of small molecules that bind to the novel intracellular target revealed by PandaOmics.The series of novel small molecules generated by Chemistry42 showed promising on target inhibition.One particular hit ISM001 demonstrated activity with nanomolar(nM)IC50 values.When optimizing ISM001,Insilico managed to achieve increased solubility,good ADME properties,and no sign of CYP inhibition with retained nanomolar potency.Interestingly,the optimized compounds also showed nanomolar potency against nine other targets related to fibrosis.The efficacy and a good safety of the molecule led to its nomination as a pre-clinical drug candidate in December 2020 for IND-enabling studies.The phase I clinical trial for the novel drug candidate is planned for December 2021.1 week2

BioTech Companies1120 InvestorsPharma CompaniesPharma Efficiency:Challenges19Deep Pharma Intelligence10 years $2.6 bln=1 new drugIt takes on average over 10 years to bring a new drug to market.As of 2014,according to Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development(CSDD),the cost of developing a new prescription drug that gains market approval is approximately$2.6 billion.This is 145%increase,correcting for inflation,comparing to the same report made in 2003.The pharmaceutical industry is in a terminal decline,and the returns on new drugs that do get to market do not justify the massive investments that Pharma currently puts into R&D anymore.The solution to this problem comes from three key strategies:evolution of business models towards more collaboration and pipeline diversification early implementation of AI as a universal shift towards data-centric drug discovery discovery of new therapeutic modalities(biologics,therapies etc.)0-Effect on bodyI-Safety in

Investments in 202127InvestTech Advanced SolutionsDeep Pharma IntelligenceThe chart shows the top 10 AI-driven drug discovery companies sorted by the total funding raised by the end of 2021.Roivant Sciences,a leader in artificial intelligence and precision medicine,is now at the top of the list.Having completed the business combination with Montes Archimedes Acquisition Corp,Roivant Sciences has the total funding raised to$2.09B.Zai lab,chinese provider of transformative medicines could finance$0.8B in capital market.Tempus,Insitro and ThoughtSpot are new companies due to late-stage mega-rounds during the 2021.Major Observations for Q1 2021-Q1 2022:Key Business TakeawaysThe segment of pharmaceutical AI continues consolidation with the increasing number of later stage mega-rounds,including XtalPi and Insitro(both$400M),Generate Biomedicines($370M),Exscientia and Insilico Medicine(both$255M),and Arbor Biotechnologies($215M).The AI start-up pack is clear leaders with significant resources,financial leverage,technical edge,and laggards with fewer finances,technology,and scientific assets.Notably,the BioTech business adopts a new robust trend of taking firms public through SPACs(SPACs).Recently,Roivant Sciences,an AI-driven firm,exited through SPAC.Roivants consolidated cash position will be about$2.5B on September 30,2021.28Deep Pharma IntelligenceThe pharmaceutical AI business is“heating up”,becoming a profitable area for expert biotech investors as well as investor groups looking to diversify their portfolios with high-risk/high-reward firms.The total amount invested in AI in Pharma in 2021 has quadrupled from$4,7M to$12,73M.A growing number of proof-of-concept breakthroughs confirm that AI technology has matured enough to provide tangible value to pharma and contract research organizations(CROs).Due to quickly growing proof of AI tech feasibility and innovation potential,big pharma and contract research organizations are actively competing for AI collaborations.Valo Health started partnership with Charles River Laboratories to accelerate preclinical drug discovery using Valos small molecule Drug Discovery platform.Exscientia has signed a research collaboration with Sanofi and received an investment of$100M to develop potential drug candidates for cancer and immune-mediated diseases.Major Observations for Q1 2021-Q1 2022:Key Business TakeawaysThe global COVID-19 pandemic prolongs the rise of the overall biotech and drug discovery sectors.During 2021 we have observed over 100 medium and large funding rounds for biotech and drug design companies,especially those focused on antiviral therapies and vaccines.29Deep Pharma IntelligenceIn 2021,10 companies that use AI for DD reached IPO status.New York-based Roivant Science closed its IPO in October and raised$611M.Exscientia,a pharmatech company that uses an end-to-end AI platform to design and discover new drugs launched IPO the same day as Roivant Science and raised$350M.The vast majority of companies started gaining IPO status after 2018,marked by a growth of 136.0%during the last four years and we expect this trend growth to continue.When some of the companies complete IPOs in the nearest future,it will attract a significant number of non-biotech investors to enter the Life Sciences sector.The prospects of this trend are already vivid:big tech companies enter partnerships with both innovative start-ups and pharma companies to consolidate resources,mainly in personalized medicine,cell and gene therapy,and molecule prediction software.Some of these companies even open subsidiaries harvesting AI in Drug Design(like Isomorphic Labs from Google).The growing industry traction,reflected in the increasing number of R&D partnerships between big pharma and CROs with AI startups,is a sign that the market is maturing for rapid increase in M&A activity in the nearest future.Despite the crisis,AI-in-Pharma publicly traded companies present YTD growth with reaching$110B of cumulative capitalization as of December 30,2021.Key Technology Takeaways1.AI is regarded by some top executives at big pharma(GSK and others)as a tool to uncover not only new molecules,but also new targets.Ability of deep neural networks to build ontologies from multimodal data(e.g.“omics”data)is believed to be among the most disruptive areas for AI in drug discovery,alongside with data mining from unstructured data,like text(using natural language processing,NLP).2.There is a considerable trend for“AI democratization”where various machine learning/deep learning technologies become available in pre-trained,pre-configured“of-the-shelf”formats,or in relatively ready-to-use formats via cloud-based models,frameworks,and drag-and-drop AI-pipeline building platforms(for example,KNIME).This is among key factors in the acceleration of AI adoption by the pharmaceutical organizations where a non-AI experts can potentially use fairly advanced data analytics tools for their research.3.Proof-of-concept projects keep yielding successful results in research studies,and in the commercial partnerships alike.For example,companies like Recursion Pharmaceuticals,Insilico Medicine,Deep Genomics,and Exscientia achieved important research milestones using their AI-based drug design platforms.30Deep Pharma IntelligenceAI democra-tizationsAI platforms yield successful resultsAI on different steps in DDAi is used not only for drug design,but also target identification.Many AI-designed drugs showed successful results in research studies and even clinical trials.Ready-to-use AI platforms for DD became available and can be used by non-AI experts.AI in Biotech ChallengesLack of Quality DataObstacles That Still Remain31Deep Pharma Intelligence1.Global shortage of AI talent continues to be a serious challenge for the biopharma industry,repeating the trend from our previous reports.While big pharmaceutical companies invest substantial capital in recruitment of AI specialists,still the majority of them are acquired by large tech corporations(Google,Amazon,Alibaba,Tencent,Baidu etc.)However,a growing wave of specialized university programs and courses,geared towards data science and AI application,is projected to address this issue to certain extent in the coming years.2.Lack of available quality data is still a challenge for the unleashing full potential of deep learning technologies.Numerous variations of deep learning(DL)are believed to be the most lucrative area of AI for applications such as drug discovery and clinical research.The key challenge is that DL algorithms are“data-greedy”,while big data in biotech is not always well-versed for modeling,or is inaccessible due to privacy reasons.3.Ethical,legal,and regulatory issues for AI adoption in the pharmaceutical sciences.This set of challenges is related to the previous point,but also includes other questions AI explainability,patentability of AI-generated results,non-optimal regulations in various countries,slowing down the progress and adoption of AI technologies in general,and in the pharmaceutical industry in particular.Lack of Specialists Ethical,Legal and Regulatory IssuesAI in the Global Context32Deep Pharma IntelligenceUS is a main player in AI industry In the beginning of AI implementation,US was a pioneer and then the main player with the greatest number of companies using AI to force R&D,research centres and institutes,and investments.China engages in extensive investment activityIn particular,it has promised to invest$5B in AI.Tianjin,one of the biggest municipalities,is going to invest$16B in its local AI industry,and the Beijing authorities will build$2.12B AI development project.China plans to become the world AI leader by 2030According to the AI Strategic Plan released in July 2017.The analysis of the the Asia-Pacific region has shown that the main forcers of AI implementation include Saama Technologies,Inc.,a leading clinical data analytics company.Europe has traditionally been a strong breeding ground for biopharma activity The UK and EU activity in the pharmaceutical AI race is mainly boosted by Novartis.UK-based BenevolentAI and AstraZeneca collaborate with novel AI-generated chronic kidney disease target.DEEP PHARMA

scalable AI approaches for Drug Discovery developed and several industry players with forward-thinking executives started launching pilot collaborations and making small investments.However,only few market players believed in the technology.The First AI ApproachesCriticism Market Cap GrowthTransition from Quantity to QualityIntensive Competition Platform-based Drug Design Because AI is still a young approach within the life sciences,many pilot projects failed,creating a lot of criticism towards using deep learning for Drug Discovery and Advanced R&D.Since then,the race to acquire the best AI startups began.Testing of the technology began.The capitalization of the industry was continuously growing.Many bets of early investors appeared to be justified.Over the next several years,we expect to see VC firms and subsidiary funds focused solely on the AI for Drug Discovery subsector and invest in a maximally-diverse number of AI for Drug Discovery companies.Transitioning from the quantity of AI-related collaborations,investments,and M&As to qualitative gains the first practical validations of previously conducted research might be appearing during this year.Competition for the most successful pharma AI companies will increase drastically.Pretty much all big players in the pharma industry are concerned with AI adoption,and tech has become a strategic priority,among other things.Cutting-edge advancements in AI technology with human-like environment simulations in drug discovery.Leading pharmaceutical industry players will be moving towards platform-based drug design.The emergence of comprehensive R&D and business infrastructure enables end-to-end AI-driven drug development.201820192020-20212013-20152016-20172022-202350 Leading Investors in Pharmaceutical

PharmaFundamental Analysis of AI in Pharma Public Companies Compared to its peers,EVAXION has the lowest market capitalization and Enterprise Value making Evaxion cash burden is less than its peers.Evaxion market capitalization is continuously increasing due to the expectation of advancing clinical trials.As of June 2021,Evaxions cash position of$18.8 million is expected to be sufficient to fund key clinical programs into 2022.Due to the U.S.Food and Drug Administration(FDA)having cleared the companys Investigational New Drug application to begin a Phase I trial of BMF-219,Biome draws attention from investors.The company has expanded team and in-house research capabilities to support long-term growth and clinical and preclinical development plans.As of June 30,2021,the Company had cash,cash equivalents,restricted cash,and investments of$203.0 million.The clinical developments of the company should enhance it financial positions.Compared to its peers,Recursion Pharma is the one that has a huge revenue growth with 120%in 2021(LTM).The 74%revenue growth in 2020 makes the companys market position even better.One of the reasons that the company wasnt able to reach positive EBITDA is that the company expanded the total number of research and development programs from 37 to 48 as well as its operations to Canada.As of June 30,2021,Recursions cash and cash equivalents were$632.7 million.62Deep Pharma IntelligenceSources:Investment Digest AI in PharmaFundamental Analysis of AI in Pharma Public Companies Berkeleys revenue grew to$77.8 million for 2021(LTM),representing a 21%growth.Berkeley Lights continues to expect full year 2021 revenue to be in the range of$90 million to$100 million,representing 40%to 56%growth over the full year of 2020.Berkeley kept gross margin above 65%in the last 3 year.On the contrary of revenue growth,we saw that Berkeleys market capitalization is decreasing significantly with-57%.The main reason for the decrease in market cap is that the company gave guidance for 2021 in the range of growth between 40%and 56%over the prior year.From investors point of view BLIs growth is about to stumble.Relays revenue goes steady with expectation of 2%growth in 2021.Relay has acquired ZebiAI in April 2021 which affected$134.9 million in expenses.Despite the acquisition,the company is projected to reach 50%of the gross margin in 2021,continuing its great performance from 2020,when the margin reached 100%.As institutional investors increased their shares in Relay,companys market capitalization increased 3%in 2021(LTM).As of June 30,2021,cash,cash equivalents and investments totaled approximately$671.2 million.The Company expects its current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund its current operating plan into 2024.63Deep Pharma IntelligenceSources:Investment Digest AI in PharmaFundamental Analysis of AI in Pharma Public Companies Total Revenue is$120 million in 2021(LTM),expected an increase of over 12%compared to 2020.Gross profit is expected to reach over$62 million in 2021 with a gross margin over 62%.The companys expenses are projected to scale due the development of its internal drug discovery programs.Operating expenses reached$42.3 million in Q2-2021,compared to$30.7 million in Q2-2020.Although Schrdinger is expected to maintain its revenue growth rate,its definitely expected to grow faster than the wider industry.The companys total revenue for the second quarter of 2021 was$10.2 million compared to$5.9 million for the second quarter of 2020,representing a 72%increase.This increase was primarily driven by new customers onboarding onto the platform.Another reason is the usage rates improvement across existing customers.SOPHiA Genetics full year revenue for 2021 expects to be greater than$39 million,representing growth of over 37%compared to the prior year period.The decline in gross margin was primarily attributable to increased computational and storage-related costs and negative FX movement.However,the company kept its margin above 60%in the 3 years.The company has successfully closed its$345 million upsized IPO in July 2021.A few reasons that the company has a$2.3 billion market capitalization:1.Nominated ERAS-3490 Development Candidate;2.Dosed First Patient in HERKULES-1 Study;3.Dosed First Patient in FLAGSHP-1

hypothesis was build via DNN analysis of omics and clinical datasets of patients.After that company used its AI PandaOmics engine for target discovery,analyzing all relevant data,including patents and research publications with NLP algorithms.In the next step Insilico has applied its generative chemistry module(Chemistry42)in order to design a library of small molecules that bind to the novel intracellular target revealed by PandaOmics.The series of novel small molecules generated by Chemistry42 showed promising on target inhibition.One particular hit ISM001 demonstrated activity with nanomolar(nM)IC50 values.When optimizing ISM001,Insilico managed to achieve increased solubility,good ADME properties,and no sign of CYP inhibition with retained nanomolar potency.Interestingly,the optimized compounds also showed nanomolar potency against nine other targets related to fibrosis.The efficacy and a good safety of the molecule led to its nomination as a pre-clinical drug candidate in December 2020 for IND-enabling studies.The phase I clinical trial for the novel drug candidate is planned for December 2021.1 week2 months4 months11 monthsPhase 1Phase 2Phase 3Submission to

IntelligenceLatest AchievementsNotable Case StudiesAI-Pharma CollaborationsBusiness TrendsTechnical InsightsCROsTech Companies600 AI BioTech Companies1200 InvestorsPharma CompaniesPharma Efficiency:Challenges17Deep Pharma Intelligence10 years $2.6 bln=1 new drugIt takes on average over 10 years to bring a new drug to market.As of 2014,according to Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development(CSDD),the cost of developing a new prescription drug that gains market approval is approximately$2.6 billion.This is a 145%increase,correcting for inflation,compared to the same report made in 2003.The pharmaceutical industry is in a terminal decline,and the returns on new drugs that do get to market do not justify the massive investments that Pharma currently puts into R&D anymore.The solution to this problem comes from three key strategies:evolution of business models towards more collaboration and pipeline diversification early implementation of AI as a universal shift towards data-centric drug discovery discovery of new therapeutic modalities(biologics,therapies,etc.)0-Effect on bodyI-Safety in humansII-Effectiveness at treating diseasesIII-Larger scale

datasets for appropriate compounds to advanced lead modification and in silico testings.Big Pharmas AI-focused partnerships till Q3 2022In this report we have profiled 600 actively developing AI-driven biotech companies.A steady growth in the AI for Drug Discovery sector can be observed in terms of substantially increased amount of investment capital pouring into the AI-driven biotech companies($2.28B in HY 2020 against$2.93B in HY 2021),the increasing number of research partnerships between leading pharma organizations and AI-biotechs,and AI-technology vendors,a continuing pipeline of industry developments,research breakthroughs,and proof of concept studies,as well as exploding attention of leading media and consulting companies to the topic of AI in Pharma and healthcare.Some of the leading pharma executives increasingly see AI as not only a tool for lead identification,but also a more general tool to boost biology research and identify new biological targets and develop novel disease models.The main focus of AI research for today is still on small molecules as a therapeutic modality.20Deep Pharma Intelligence31 Deals28-38 Deals27-32 Deals23-27

process.22Deep Pharma IntelligenceThe business activity has been increasing in the pharmaceutical AI space over Q1 2022-Q3 2022,judging by an increased number of transactions and partnership announcements in this period.The most significant deals and collaborations in include:Dynamics of Investments in AI in Drug DevelopmentThere has been a substantial increase in the amount of capital invested in AI-driven pharma companies since 2014.During the last seven years,the annual amount of investments in 600 companies has increased by almost 52 times(to$115.84B in total as of October 2022).In 2021,the flow of investments increased by 143%compared to the previous year.The estimated amount of investments in the AI in Pharma sub-sector of the Longevity industry has increased in 2.5 times in 2021 compared to 2020 which identifies strong investors(foremost VCs)interest in this field regardless of risks.23InvestTech Advanced SolutionsDeep Pharma IntelligenceTop 10 AI in Pharma Companies by Total Investments in Q2-Q3 202224InvestTech Advanced SolutionsDeep Pharma IntelligenceThe chart shows the top 10 AI-driven drug discovery companies sorted by the total funding raised by the end of Q3 2022.XtalPi,an artificial intelligence-powered drug R&D company,is now at the top of the list.Having completed the business combination with Excelra,XtalPi has the total funding raised to$791M.Insitro,american company utilizing ML drug discovery,could finance$743M in capital market.Tempus,Insitro and ThoughtSpot are new companies due to late-stage mega-rounds during the 2021.Major Observations for Q2-Q3 2022:Key Business TakeawaysThe segment of pharmaceutical AI continues consolidation with the increasing number of later stage mega-rounds,including XtalPi,Neuromora Therapeutics and Insitro(both$400M),Medable and Biofourmis(both$304M),Insilico Medicine($255M),and DNAnexus and Genuity Science(both$200M).The AI start-up pack is clear leaders with significant resources,financial leverage,technical edge,and laggards with fewer finances,technology,and scientific assets.Besides,there is one company that received IPO status recently:Benevolent AI.25Deep Pharma IntelligenceThe pharmaceutical AI business is“heating up”,becoming a profitable area for expert biotech investors as well as investor groups looking to diversify their portfolios with high-risk/high-reward firms.A growing number of proof-of-concept breakthroughs confirm that AI technology has matured enough to provide tangible value to pharma and contract research organizations(CROs).Due to quickly growing proof of AI tech feasibility and innovation potential,big pharma and contract research organizations are actively competing for AI collaborations.Amgen and Generate Biomedicines will team together to find and develop protein therapies for five clinical targets using a variety of treatment methods and therapeutic regions.Cyclica has announced 10 new academic partnerships.With its new agreements,Cyclica hopes to equip academia academics with AI-enhanced drug development platforms and hasten the process.Major Observations for Q2-Q3 2022:Key Business TakeawaysThe global COVID-19 pandemic prolongs the rise of the overall biotech and drug discovery sectors.During 2021 we have observed over 100 medium and large funding rounds for biotech and drug design companies,especially those focused on antiviral therapies and vaccines.26Deep Pharma IntelligenceIn Q2-3 2022,1 company that use AI for DD reached IPO status.London-based Benevolent AI closed its IPO in April and raised$292M.The vast majority of companies started gaining IPO status after 2018,marked by a growth of 136.0%during the last four years and we expect this trend growth to continue.When some of the companies complete IPOs in the nearest future,it will attract a significant number of non-biotech investors to enter the Life Sciences sector.The prospects of this trend are already vivid:big tech companies enter partnerships with both innovative start-ups and pharma companies to consolidate resources,mainly in personalized medicine,cell and gene therapy,and molecule prediction software.Some of these companies even open subsidiaries harvesting AI in Drug Design(like Isomorphic Labs from Google).The growing industry traction,reflected in the increasing number of R&D partnerships between big pharma and CROs with AI startups,is a sign that the market is maturing for rapid increase in M&A activity in the nearest future.Because of the crisis AI-in-Drug Development publicly traded companies fell to$85,7B of cumulative capitalization as of October 3rd,2022.Key Technology Takeaways1.AI is regarded by some top executives at big pharma(GSK and others)as a tool to uncover not only new molecules,but also new targets.Ability of deep neural networks to build ontologies from multimodal data(e.g.“omics”data)is believed to be among the most disruptive areas for AI in drug discovery,alongside with data mining from unstructured data,like text(using natural language processing,NLP).2.There is a considerable trend for“AI democratization”where various machine learning/deep learning technologies become available in pre-trained,pre-configured“of-the-shelf”formats,or in relatively ready-to-use formats via cloud-based models,frameworks,and drag-and-drop AI-pipeline building platforms(for example,KNIME).This is among key factors in the acceleration of AI adoption by the pharmaceutical organizations where a non-AI experts can potentially use fairly advanced data analytics tools for their research.3.Proof-of-concept projects keep yielding successful results in research studies,and in the commercial partnerships alike.For example,companies like Recursion Pharmaceuticals,Insilico Medicine,Deep Genomics,and Exscientia achieved important research milestones using their AI-based drug design platforms.27Deep Pharma IntelligenceAI democra-tizationsAI platforms yield successful resultsAI on different steps in DDAI is used not only for drug design,but also target identification.Many AI-designed drugs showed successful results in research studies and even clinical trials.Ready-to-use AI platforms for DD became available and can be used by non-AI experts.AI in Biotech ChallengesLack of Quality DataObstacles That Still Remain28Deep Pharma Intelligence1.Global shortage of AI talent continues to be a serious challenge for the biopharma industry,repeating the trend from our previous reports.While big pharmaceutical companies invest substantial capital in recruitment of AI specialists,still the majority of them are acquired by large tech corporations(Google,Amazon,Alibaba,Tencent,Baidu etc.)However,a growing wave of specialized university programs and courses,geared towards data science and AI application,is projected to address this issue to certain extent in the coming years.2.Lack of available quality data is still a challenge for the unleashing full potential of deep learning technologies.Numerous variations of deep learning(DL)are believed to be the most lucrative area of AI for applications such as drug discovery and clinical research.The key challenge is that DL algorithms are“data-greedy”,while big data in biotech is not always well-versed for modeling,or is inaccessible due to privacy reasons.3.Ethical,legal,and regulatory issues for AI adoption in the pharmaceutical sciences.This set of challenges is related to the previous point,but also includes other questions AI explainability,patentability of AI-generated results,non-optimal regulations in various countries,slowing down the progress and adoption of AI technologies in general,and in the pharmaceutical industry in particular.Lack of Specialists Ethical,Legal and Regulatory IssuesAI in the Global Context29US is a main player in AI industry In the beginning of AI implementation,US was a pioneer and then the main player with the greatest number of companies using AI to force R&D,research centres and institutes,and investments.China engages in extensive investment activityIn particular,it has promised to invest$5B in AI.Tianjin,one of the biggest municipalities,is going to invest$16B in its local AI industry,and the Beijing authorities will build$2.12B AI development project.China plans to become the world AI leader by 2030According to the AI Strategic Plan released in July 2017.The analysis of the the Asia-Pacific region has shown that the main forcers of AI implementation include Saama Technologies,Inc.,a leading clinical data analytics company.Europe has traditionally been a strong breeding ground for biopharma activity The UK and EU activity in the pharmaceutical AI race is mainly boosted by Novartis.UK-based BenevolentAI and AstraZeneca collaborate with novel AI-generated chronic kidney disease target.DEEP PHARMA INTELLIGENCEBusiness Activity:Overview Round A Round B

research organizationsSynthetic biologyData-powered drug discoveryLarge pharma/traditional biotechCloud laboratoriesAI drug discoveryDrug discovery is undergoing massive and rapid change-the rise of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning for Drug Discovery and the evolution of robotics-centric companies in the biomedical research space has enabled a new generation of companies to emerge:data-powered drug discovery companies that combine automation and data science.94Deep Pharma IntelligenceThe company was founded by an oncologist and a medicinal/synthetic chemist,with the goal to accelerate the discovery and development of new therapies by harnessing the power of technology and combining it with deep industry expertise.The core thesis of the company is that better data leads to better decisions,and that in order for drug discovery programs to develop and meet the next milestone faster and with higher chance of success,the underlying data must be rich,reliable,and reproducible.According to Arctoris,the status quo is no longer enough:in order to develop the best drugs,industry leaders have to rethink how they can improve their decision-making,powered by better data.Having developed a suite of proprietary technologies across robotics and data science/AI/ML,Arctoris is a leader in this new and rapidly evolving field.How Do Robotics and AI/ML Synergize in Drug

Categories20 Executive Swww.dka.global5Innovation EyeExecutive Summary Source:publications.parliament.uThe AI revolution is enormous.Increased use of Artificial Intelligence(AI)can bring major social and economic benefits to the UK,but there are also risks which need mitigation.Today,AI-based systems can already do things humans will simply never be able to accomplish.This has led to the AI Industry catching the focused attention of investors,entrepreneurs,researchers,and legislators at the government level.For example,to increase AI readiness and skills,the UK is creating new training and educational opportunities led by UK universities.Specific recommendations relating to staff training programs are part of these ongoing efforts.In a similar vein,investors invest in startups,a large proportion of which are based in London.Incidentally,65%of the UKs AI companies are headquartered in the UKs capital,making it the most attractive city for investment and talent.Total investment in the UKs AI companies is in excess of 13bn.However,the AI sector was not unaffected by COVID-19.In 2018-2019,investments in AI increased by 200%,while in 2020 they decreased by 64%,but recovered in 2021.The funding over these three periods stands at 9bn.If AI starts to make ethical and political decisions for us,this means that the study of ethics and ethics training is now more important than ever.We are currently witnessing transmission trends from ethical discussions on AI adoption into real-world usage,so governance in this area is vital.The UK has the potential to become the worlds leader in advanced AI systems,developing and using Machine Learning,computer vision,chatbots and AI assistants,robotic,Internet of Things,predictive analytics,search engines and language processing as well as intelligent data analytics.The UK and London,in particular is becoming a true innovation and investment epicentre for everything related to Artificial Intelligence.Our quantitative and qualitative analysis leads to this conclusion,finding combined efforts across all segments of business,investment,research,society and political will to:Ensure AI readiness through the UKs human capital,skills and diversity.Evident from our AI training and skills programmes.Accelerate R&D and Innovation and speed up its adoption to market,through investment in entrepreneurship and AI applications,in an ethical and sustainable way.Evident from our investment strategies.Build ecosystems and networks that attract foreign talents to enhance collaborations on AI between academia,industry,and government.Evident from our network organisations and talent pool enablers.Engage experts,stakeholders and citizen,participation through multiple,ongoing,open government consultations to build public trust in the decisions around the regulation and adoption of AI so we can realise the benefits and minimise the risks.Lead AI governance and regulation though stimulating ethical business models on AI-driven implementations and use.This underpins how we think and who we are.Invest in the UKs digital infrastructure,including data and cyber security.Here we are operating in catch-up.Our analysis underpinning these results finds three facts that encapsulate this.They are described on the next three pages,but the reader must consult the entire report for full evidence,analysis,illustrations,and graphics.The UK is the host of a highly sophisticated AI innovation ecosystem bringing together investment confidence,talent,industry growth,and an AI-community spirit.The UK,and especially London,has unique potential to become a true epicentre of purposeful,innovative,and safe international Blockchain integration and cooperation.The 2021 analysis and report identify and profile more than 2,000 AI-centric companies across 20 AI sectors and 50 cities in the UK.In particular,the 2021 UK AI landscape overview breaks down,on a company-by-company basis,more than 13 billion worth of investments from 1,500 investors into these AI companies.Additionally,it profiles hundreds of UK AI experts across more than 90 AI-centric hubs including think tanks,tech-hubs,doctoral training centres,and AI events.Finally,it provides a rundown of AI-friendly government initiatives and policy bodies that create AI initiatives,which include creating and delivering the National AI Strategy.The majority of investments in the UK AI space have been in FinTech(25.84%),Marketing and Advertising(22.85%),Healthcare(12.54%),and Entertainment(6.46%).There is also significant investment in Security(5.88%)and Data Analytics companies(5.24%).Investment in GovTech(0.86%),Energy(0.29%),and Transportation(1.85%)is much lower.This relatively small investment in AI GovTech and the likes indicates how there is still underinvestment in public-purpose sectors compared to their huge potential.But we can still identify several government-related bodies involved in AI initiatives such as the Office for AI and the AI Council,Innovate UK,the UK Home Office,the Intellectual Property Office,the Information Commissioners Office,Government Digital Services,NHSX,and more.We see how the UK and,in particular,London is becoming a true innovation and investment epicentre for everything AI-related.Almost 1,300(or 65%)of the UKs 2,000 AI companies are headquartered in London.One could conclude that the entrepreneurial AI community is located close to finance,marketing,and regulatory bodies that are needed to grow the AI community.London,as Europes marketing and advertisement centre and financial capital,is now also innovating a new ecosystem in AI investment,development,deployment,and adoption.6Innovation Eye1/3:INVESTMENT CONFIDENCE IN ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS HIGH AND GROWING Executive Summary 7Innovation EyeThe UK hosts a highly sophisticated AI innovation ecosystem integrating the ingredients for a vibrant and dynamic AI Industry:science,technology,talent,business models,and entrepreneurship with financial backing.Thus,the UKs Artificial Intelligence innovation and investment ecosystem brings together:An entrepreneurial AI Industry system which is becoming a magnet for entrepreneurial finance.A top-talent and AI science system from our education system,research base,and universities.Industry,finance,and talent systems are mixed with a network of AI think tanks and events companies that are building the UKs world-leading AI communities.Thus,in the UK we are closing the gap between the research base,AI business models,and market-adoption.We are also closing the gap between a growing AI Industry and entrepreneurial finance.The highly networked AI talent pool comes from a network of AI initiatives including:1.Both research and teaching programmes at UK universities(in excess of 16 doctoral training programmes,most of which are receiving grants from UK Research and Innovation UKRI including the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council EPSRC)2.AI networking and events companies(such as CogX,Wearable Technology Show,and Big Data and AI World.),3.Think-tanks(including the Ada Lovelace Institute,Big Brother Watch,Institute for the Future of Work,Teens in AI,and Big Innovation Centre)4.The All-Party Parliamentary Group on AI(APPG AI)functions as the permanent authoritative voice within the UK Parliament(the House of Commons and House of Lords)on all AI-related matters,while engaging with the entire network to bring experts and use cases to inform parliamentarians.It is accompanied by a video and report series,plus a community platform(online and onsite).A nation of AI expertsThe UK is the host of hundreds of AI experts and influencers across businesses,academia,think tanks,and policy.2/3:A HIGHLY INTEGRATED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE INNOVATION ECOSYSTEM OF TALENTExecutive Summary 8Innovation EyeExecutive Summary The UK governments AI strategy must catalyse some of these opportunities.The UK has recognised AI as a huge opportunity and indeed the UK governments Industrial Strategy white paper identified AI and Data as one of four Grand Challenges(together with Future of Mobility,Clean Growth,and Ageing Society).This was followed up by a range of government initiatives,leading to the AI strategy published towards the end of 2021.There is strong political will for AI technology and adoption,but the UKs AI markets and industry are moving fast.The UK is a leader in Ethical AI.The fast growth in AI development and adoption needs to be accompanied by increased regulatory engagement in this space,stimulating institutional bodies and engagement to co-create AI strategies,as well as rules,norms,and standards in the AI implementation space.Examples of government-related bodies that make AI initiatives include the Office for AI co-producing the AI Strategy,through the AI council publication consultation as a follow up to the AI Roadmap.Other initiatives include the Online Harms White paper from the Department for Digital,Culture,Media and Sport and the Home Office,also produced through public consultation.Other AI-related strategies and papers co-produced though open consultations since 2019 include those on the UK National Data Strategy(NDS)by the Department for Digital,Culture,Media and Sport with the aim of enabling the UK to build a world-leading data economy while ensuring public trust in data use.The open consultation for Artificial Intelligence and Intellectual Property:copyright and patents is a current initiative by the Intellectual Property Office.The House of Lords Liaison Committee produced its own consultation of AI in the UK,published with the sub-title No Room for Complacency.There is also commissioned research to inform on The Automated Facial Recognition Guide to Ethical and Legal Use,designed by the British Security Industry Association to improve peoples safety and wellbeing.The Centre for Data Ethics and Innovations review into bias in algorithmic decision making is a similar example.3/3:THE UKs ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

the AI Sector The UK is making great efforts to maintain its current position as the#3 international AI leader behind the USA and China,and to optimise its potential to climb further up the ladder of the Global AI Race.By PwCs estimation,AI technologies are set to contribute 11.9T to the world economy by 2030,and to increase UK GDP by up to 10.3%by 2030.In order to convert this potential into reality,the UK government has formulated strategic industry development initiatives in five key areas(following the EU member states monitoring scheme):Human Capital,Lab to the Market Developments,Networking,Regulation and Infrastructure.Human capital policy targets the UK educational system to create a supply of AI specialists that meets the nations demands.The UK has initiated a National Retraining Scheme to encourage lifelong learning for adults and let them enter new niches in the workforce.The Lab to the market development policy area focuses on accelerating the development of AI-related technologies and the journey from prototype to market-ready products and services.To hasten product development lifecycles,the UK government has committed substantial investments to research programs focused on data science and AI(300 million)as well as sponsoring institutions that deal with AI-related investigations.Among them are the Alan Turing Institute and the recently established Centre for Industrial Digitisation,Robotics and Automation.Meanwhile,networking policies aim to attract highly skilled workers for simplified immigration paths.As part of its networking development initiative,the UK has established the AI Council,an independent expert committee that facilitates collaboration between experts in AI technologies in academia,industry,and Government institutions.In order to develop regulations for data-based technologies,including AI,the UK has also established a Centre for Data Ethics and Innovation(CDEI).The CDEI advises the government on risks and opportunities relating to the adoption of AI and data use in the UK and has power to influence policy-making.Finally,infrastructure policies focus on supporting optimal technology environments that affect the development of new technology implementation.As part of this fifth development area,the UK has made large investments in 5G,full-fibre networks,and transportation projects.Sources:jrc.ec.europa,gov.uk(AI Watch:National Strategies on Artificial Intelligence,European Commission 2019),parliament.ukGovernment Initiatives on AI in 2019-2021 51Innovation EyeHuman Capital Transformation1AI Main Trends:Human Capital TransformationExamples of Government InitiativesThe UK is investing heavily in the creation of new training and educational opportunities centered on AI in order to increase the number of AI specialists,technologists,and technicians.This is to help the nations supply of AI expertise meet actual real-world demands.Additionally,these efforts are also partly aimed at increasing demand for AI specialists,given that supply also,to some extent,influences demand,and a larger quantity of AI specialists available helps to create jobs where their services will be needed.A wide range of AI specialties have been created throughout UK universities,coupled with specific recommendations relating to staff training programs within businesses(and across a large number of industries).In order to help accommodate qualifications and skill sets to match market needs,a number of funding initiatives for educational,research degree programs and industry placements in data science companies have been launched in the UK.These include the AI Turing Fellowships,funding in foster skills in STEM areas(406 million),and industry-funding for new AI Masters places.Meanwhile,the UK governments National Retraining Scheme focuses on requalification programs for employees to help create a new wave of Data Science professionals,as well as to increase the overall earning power of the UK populace.Teacher Development funding(42 million)AI Turing FellowshipsNational Retraining Scheme16 New Centres for

R&DExamples of Government InitiativesAI is one of the most significant drivers of economic growth,productivity,and increases in GDP.Many high-profile reports published within the first half of 2021 predict that the implementation,development,and industrialisation of AI technologies have the potential to boost the UK economy by 20-30%.Meanwhile,the overall volume of investment in the AI Industry in the UK surpasses AI-focused investments in all other EU member states combined across the full scope of the UK investment community,including venture capital,private equity,and M&A.In tandem with these trends,the current COVID-19 pandemic has also given a significant boost to advanced AI techniques such as Machine Learning,which has proved to be the most effective method of monitoring infectious disease generally(and COVID-19 transmission in particular),providing tangible proof of the capacity for AI to rapidly and efficiently tackle real-world issues of great national concern.An

business sustainable partnerships.The large-scale implementation and industrialisation of AI requires specific infrastructural support mechanisms.It also requires the long-term development of optimally structured and sustainable economic,policy,and industrial ecosystems in order to evolve in an effective manner.This includes bottom-up resources,such as educational systems capable of educating large numbers of AI specialists and specific systems that facilitate and incentivise strategic partnerships and cross-sector,cross-domain partnerships between industry and academia,product and service providers,and individual AI companies themselves.The essential role of development and monitoring institutions in creating and maintaining AI leadership potential.Creating specialised institutions dedicated to formulating and executing AI policy;recommendations;cross-sector and public-private sector partnerships and collaborations;dialogue between Government,industry,and academia;and other forms of guidance,regulatory infrastructure,and systems for facilitating cooperation among different stakeholders are pivotal to both establishing and maintaining international AI leadership positions,and the UK is an excellent proof of concept for this.Providing simplified migration regulations to attract foreign talent in Data Science is a fast way to fulfil lacks and lags in domestic AI specialists in the UK.While educational reforms and requalification programmes take time to foster their actual results,Exceptional Talent visas(of which up to 2,000 are given per year)present a very efficient solution to solving gaps between labour market supply and demand for Data Scientists and Researchers.Simplified migration rules for leading scientists and

Trends:Focus on AI Policy ImplementationExamples of Government InitiativesAI technologies must be used in an ethical manner.Mandatory public disclosure of how new technologies may affect human lives is expected to build a high degree of public trust in the AI sector.AI decision-making should include human involvement.Decision-making processes that fail to include public engagement and feedback can quickly lead to large losses in public confidence.The establishment of ethical standards is essential for confidence-building.Implementing clear ethical standards around AI may accelerate rather than delay the adoption of new technologies among public officials and service users.AI-related human rights violations must be avoided.AI-related privacy concerns are becoming increasingly important as the potential for technology to facilitate intrusions on privacy continues to increase.The AI Industry may need additional,tailored,sector-specific guidance on minimum and best-practice ethical principles relating to human rights in relation to AI in general,and privacy protection in an increasingly technologically sophisticated world in particular.Successful AI governance requires clear and transparent legal frameworks.Transparent,sensible,and easy-to-understand regulations serve to establish proper controls for understanding,managing,and mitigating risks in order to achieve better AI governance.Establishing the Centre for Data Ethics and Innovation(CDEI)to offer advice for the safe,sustainable,and ethical use of AIStrengthening the Data Protection Act to determine the rules for

upgrading foundational instructure that supports the UK AI Industry is fundamental to establishing data-driven AI leadership positions.5G upgrades to standard and full fibre networks as an element of digital infrastructure enhancements will give both citizens and institutions access to high-speed data-exchange systems,and will facilitate ancillary upgrades to other processes such as data collection.Investments by the UK government of 176 million in 5G technology and 200 million for full-fibre networks are just two examples of how supporting upgrades to the technological infrastructure supporting the UKs AI Industry is critical to maintaining a competitive international edge in the global AI race.The UK has also seen the establishment of a 1.7 billion transportation infrastructure fund to improve intra-city and city-region commuting and transportation.In order to further improve digital infrastructure and facilitate secure data sharing without violating personal rights and privacy laws,while simultaneously simplifying the availability and quality of data,the UK government has invested in its Open Data Institute and the Open Data Research Forum.Both of these initiatives are focused on cultivating collaboration and partnership networks between business,government,academia and the public.The Open Data Institute also provides courses on data science,conducts its own internal research,supports the conversion of data science into tangible social impacts.New Transforming Cities fund to upgrade intra-city transport connections(1.7 billion)176 million in funding for

the COVID-19 pandemic,AI will be integral to tackling the major challenges of rebuilding and leveling the UK economy by creating jobs and prosperity beyond London and the South East,providing new forms of health and social care,achieving net-zero carbon emissions,and ensuring resilience to future economic,health,and environmental shocks.AI will also create completely new opportunities for humanity to flourish.The UK has earned a place among global leaders in many areas of AI,from accelerating drug discovery to helping businesses factor climate volatility into their decisions.As governments around the world have already established and financed national plans for cross-sector AI application and financed them,the UK government is now also being called for action.In 2021,the UK AI Council,an independent AI expert committee that provides advice to the UK Government for building a national AI ecosystem,published an independent report on building an AI Roadmap for the UK.In this report,four pillars on which to build the UKs future in AI are described.It invites action across government to keep the UK at the forefront of safe and responsible AI.It emphasises the importance of doubling down on recent investment the UK has made in AI,while at the same time shifting the efforts on integrating existing approaches to ethics,security,and social impacts.The strategy

has the potential to accelerate scientific discoveries through faster data processing.The scientific and research communities hope to fill gaps in their understanding of COVID-19 by utilising intelligent AI algorithms and Machine Learning.The usual pace of of drug development is too slow to meet the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic,and thus BenevolentAI,a UK Machine Learning-based drug discovery platform,has been developed to rapidly identify already existing drugs that demonstrate anti-COVID activity.This platform identifies promising candidates that may inhibit COVID-19 infection.These include Baricitinib,a drug available on the market and approved for rheumatoid arthritis.Baricitinib is now in the late stage of clinical trials as a potential treatment of COVID-19.Another essential benefit of AI-based algorithms during the pandemic has been AgriTech developments that increase food security.The pandemic situation has revealed a weakness in food supply chains worldwide and in the UK.Start-up Mantle Labs is aiming to help UK farmers and retailers improve crop-monitoring by AI-based analysis of satellite images of farmlands.Mobile applications have rapidly taken on a pivotal role in public health management.For example,the Babylon app,developed by the UK company Babylon Health,is an AI-based alternative chatbot acting as a medical helpline.It aims to reduce pressure on healthcare helpline systems as well as provide more accurate patient diagnosis.This app performs a range of TeleHealth functions:automotive symptom checker,fully-qualified consultant therapist,and so on.In 2020,the NHS also launched a contact tracing app,while the COVID Symptom Study app,an epidemiological research app,helps shed light on the spread of the virus and
