As the biotech market recovers, it's not just trendy drug areas — like weight loss — attracting investor attention. Here's how one VC investor chooses which companies to back. Thanks Ayman AlAbdallah for the great conversations! #pharma #AI #biotech

Just as the Medici family were heralded as the Godfathers of the Renaissance for fostering an era of unparalleled cultural prosperity in Florence, today, Robert Nelsen and David Baker are laying the groundwork for a new age of health prosperity—the bio-renaissance. This is reminiscent of the Renaissance as multiple disciplines: AI x biology collide, enabled by big bets from financiers. Their latest venture, Xaira Therapeutics, has just launched with an unprecedented $1BN to revolutionize drug discovery through AI. May this be the day we look back as one that catalyzed the bio-renaissance. Here’s to hoping this initiative spawns drugs faster than ever before. The patients cannot wait. #BioRenaissance #Innovation #Healthcare #Biotechnology Vik Bajaj, Foresite Capital, Scott Gottlieb, New Enterprise Associates (NEA), Lux Capital, F-Prime Capital, Sequoia Capital, Lightspeed, Menlo Ventures, Two Sigma, SV Angel https://lnkd.in/gv5XXEsH

At Jackson Hogg, we're proud to collaborate closely with AI-centric biotech firms globally. 💵 The AI health market is set to exceed $270 billion by 2030. Leading fundraisers include: 🌎 Relay Therapeutics (US) - $1,900M 🌏 XtalPi Inc. (China) - $780M 🌍 BenevolentAI (UK) - $294M 🖥 Over 250 companies are involved in AI and drug discovery, but it's a volatile space with few securing substantial funding or high valuations. 📉 Big pharma companies haven't made significant acquisitions in AI firms, possibly due to investors seeking tangible outcomes like marketable drugs over just technological innovation. 🤝 I believe M&As will be crucial going forward, with pharma companies likely to acquire AI platforms as they prove effective in drug discovery 🤔 Who will make the first move? #AIDrugDiscovery #AI #Biotech
