Biopharma's AI transformation isn't being held back by algorithms, but by data infrastructure. In this fireside chat, Yves Fomekong Nanfack moderates a discussion between Jim Villa, Global Head of Research Strategy & Operations at Takeda, and Patrick Grady, CEO of TetraScience, exploring how leading organizations are building AI-native scientific data ecosystems that enable transformational outcomes at scale.

As the founding member of TetraScience's Scientific AI Lighthouse (SAIL) program, Takeda is pioneering a new approach to scientific data infrastructure, one designed to increase PTRS, accelerate time to IND submission, and industrialize around 200 scientific use cases across the value chain.

Drawing on real-world deployments that have already achieved 70% reductions in clone selection time, $34 million in annual savings from media optimization, and 75% fewer chromatography deviations, this conversation examines what it really takes to move from pilot to production at scale.

This conversation brings together strategic operations leadership, AI/ML research, and platform technology to explore not just what's possible, but what's working and what it takes to move from aspiration to execution.

Patrick Grady

CEO
TetraScience

Patrick serves as co-founder, chairman, and CEO of TetraScience. Prior to TetraScience, Patrick spent three decades building, backing, and scaling market-defining companies and technology stacks within the high-performance computing, SaaS, cloud, and AI markets.

Patrick was the founder, CEO, and CTO of the first intelligent agent company of the Internet era, built one of the world’s first three SaaS companies, the first enterprise SaaS business, one of the first ten global technology unicorns, and the first AI unicorn.

To deliver these AI agents to market, Patrick played a well-documented role in pioneering and/or commercializing several enabling technologies, including web services, SOA, and multi-tenancy, which now undergird the trillion-dollar cloud market.

 Recognized as a leading innovator by numerous publications and peer groups over the years, Patrick was a recipient of the 2006 Fast Company award, given to the top 50 people in the world most likely to change the way we live and work for his seminal efforts in personal agent AI.
