SHOULD YOU ACCEPT THIS CHALLENGE...

The life sciences sector is at an inflection point. The promise of cell therapies is being delivered to patients; rare diseases, previously believed to be incurable, are on the precipice of real cures. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning approaches are enabling time- and cost-effective solutions to therapy discovery and development, as well as setting the foundation for personalized medicine. Data-driven approaches have the potential to create value across manufacturing, supply chain, and the entire healthcare ecosystem. As technology and behavioral science converge, the focus is also increasingly shifting to wellness and disease prevention. Consumer wearables now have medical-grade sensors; and telemedicine, remote monitoring, and virtual trials are fast becoming the mainstay.

Data being at the center of all the innovation, the new decade will see biopharma and med-tech organizations not only looking for new ways to make sense of it, but also for efficient ways to manage their increasing data loads. With the adoption of patient-centric models, healthcare and life sciences organizations are on the search for easier operational approaches in order to create real value for themselves and their shareholders.

At Pure, we understand that delivering value to customers requires solutions tailored to their specific industry needs. The global Alliance team serves as the front line for designing messaging and facilitating sales of these solutions. We are tasked with creating and growing the Pure ecosystem to drive net new pipeline opportunities in connection with prioritized technology partners. We work closely with these partners and Pure GTM teams to build differentiated solutions and enable field sales to sell their value.
