What they often lack, however, are the resources and know-how to successfully establish themselves in the market. With the FXH Startup Award, the pharmaceutical company aims to Roche Promote exchange and collaboration between industry and startups. The goal: to jointly leverage the opportunities of digitalization for our healthcare system and improve the lives of patients worldwide.
