Roche is a global pioneer in pharmaceuticals and diagnostics focused on advancing science to improve people’s lives. Roche is the world’s largest biotech company, with truly differentiated medicines in oncology, immunology, infectious diseases, ophthalmology and diseases of the central nervous system. Roche is also the world leader in in vitro diagnostics and tissue-based cancer diagnostics, and a frontrunner in diabetes management. The combined strengths of pharmaceuticals and diagnostics under one roof have made Roche the leader in personalised healthcare – a strategy that aims to fit the right treatment to each patient in the best way possible. Founded in 1896, Roche continues to search for better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat diseases and make a sustainable contribution to society. Twenty-nine medicines developed by Roche are included in the World Health Organization Model Lists of Essential Medicines, among them life-saving antibiotics, antimalarials and cancer medicines. Roche has been recognised as the Group Leader in sustainability within the Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology & Life Sciences Industry seven years in a row by the Dow Jones Sustainability Indices. The Roche Group, headquartered in Basel, Switzerland, is active in over 100 countries and in 2015 employed more than 91,700 people worldwide. In 2015, Roche invested CHF 9.3 billion in R&D and posted sales of CHF 48.1 billion. Genentech, in the United States, is a wholly owned member of the Roche Group. Roche is the majority shareholder in Chugai Pharmaceutical, Japan.
Ceribell is a fast growing venture-backed medical device start-up company founded by two faculty members at Stanford University. Our primary mission is to improve neurological care for emergency and ICU patients. Ceribell is focused on making EEG widely accessible, more efficient, and more cost-effective to improve the diagnosis and treatment of patients at risk for seizures. The System can be set up by any healthcare provider within minutes. Now with Clarity, Ceribell offers 24/7 continuous bedside EEG monitoring and alert.

We are a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering and developing best-in-class therapies for patients with liver and gastrointestinal, or GI, diseases. Since our founding in 2014, we have invested in building a foundation of chemistry and biology expertise to drive innovative drug discovery and development. We believe these internal capabilities allow us to gain insights into disease targets and mechanisms and more quickly and purposefully design therapies with characteristics that we view as key to safety and efficacy. With this systematic approach, we have designed novel, proprietary farnesoid X receptor (FXR) clinical product candidates arising from a unique chemical scaffold with the potential to be best-in-class for non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, or NASH, and first- in-class for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, or IBD. In addition to our FXR program, we have continued to invest in drug discovery on other therapeutic targets that have effects on inflammation and/or fibrosis for which we believe we could develop proprietary small molecule therapies.
At Inipharm, we`re building on novel insights and applying our chemistry expertise to develop therapies for patients with liver disease. Inipharm`s lead program is focused on small-molecules to target the activity of HSD17B13, a highly validated, genetically defined target for multiple severe liver and related diseases.
