The top priority of the new business will be to bring to market digital technology offerings used globally by AstraZeneca to optimise the design and delivery of clinical trials. 

This approach will cut down the time and expenditure for new drug development.

Evinova will combine the clinical and regulatory expertise gained at AstraZeneca with its capabilities in digital technology across development and strategy, developing digital products, data science and artificial intelligence among other areas.

The business also plans to seek its potential in the remote digital monitoring of patients and in digital therapeutics via a digital innovation pipeline in these sectors.
