Public description

About the program

Catalyze360 is Lilly's umbrella program for supporting emerging biotech companies, combining Lilly Gateway Labs incubator residency, the ExploR&D scientific advisory and services arm, and Lilly Ventures investment. It gives startups access to Lilly R&D capabilities without requiring them to hand over program rights. Lilly has extended the model with TuneLab, which gives biotechs access to AI-enabled discovery models built on Lilly's research investment.
