Global drug discovery is entering a new era, fundamentally transformed by Artificial Intelligence, data infrastructure, and computational technologies. Traditional R&D is being redefined by predictive analytics and data-driven decision-making, accelerating candidate design and improving efficiency across workflows. Amid rising costs and geopolitical risks, pharmaceutical sovereignty and resilience—a nation’s ability to independently discover and manufacture critical medicines—have become strategic priorities, with AI as a central pillar.
Against this backdrop, Taiwan is emerging as a key hub for AI-enabled drug discovery, leveraging its strong AI capabilities and world-class healthcare system.
The AI-Driven Drug Discovery Symposium will convene international experts, clinicians, and innovators to explore how AI is reshaping the pharmaceutical value chain, from molecular design to portfolio strategy. Co-hosted by ITRI, Mosaic Venture Lab, A-TEAM HUB, and PwC Taiwan, and featuring global leaders, the event aims to catalyze cross-disciplinary collaboration. Discussions will focus on how Taiwan can strengthen its role through international partnership and data-driven frameworks, advancing the strategic goals of enhancing resilience through collaboration and reducing risk through prediction. We invite you to join this flagship event in early 2026.
