About the Company

Evotec

Global drug-discovery services via partnerships

Evotec provides research and development services for drug discovery and development through strategic partnerships with pharma, biotech, and academic groups. Its work relies on proprietary platforms such as iPSC-derived cellular models and machine learning to run experiments and analyze data from early discovery through clinical development, often using patient-derived materials to support precision medicine. Unlike many competitors, Evotec offers an integrated, end-to-end R&D platform within collaborations, combining data-driven biology with cell- and gene-therapy capabilities rather than selling standalone tools. Its goal is to bring new and better medicines to patients faster and at lower cost by making the drug development process more efficient through partnerships.
