Owkin
↗New York, USA and Paris, France
Owkin is a French-American 'TechBio' unicorn that integrates causal AI and federated learning to accelerate drug discovery, clinical development, and diagnostics. The company operates a global federated network of over 800 hospitals and research centers, allowing it to train AI models on high-quality, multimodal patient data while preserving data privacy.
Owkin's platform focuses on identifying novel biomarkers and optimizing clinical trials through 'digital twins' and AI-driven patient stratification. The company has transitioned from a pure AI platform to an end-to-end biotech with its own internal pipeline, notably in-licensing assets and developing AI-powered diagnostics that are already CE-marked for clinical use in Europe.
