Everyone says they’re “doing AI in pharma.”
Few actually make it work.

Because AI in life sciences isn’t just about engineers.
It’s about people who understand the science.

At Quantori, our teams blend computational chemists, data scientists, and AI engineers.
They speak the language of R&D, not just code.

That’s why our clients trust us with AI that impacts real science, not just dashboards.

Curious: What’s the biggest gap you see between AI teams and real-world science?

VP of Life Sciences Business | Leading Enterprise AI Partnerships | Team Builder | Author of Mastering AI Sales | MBA, MSc.

I’ve seen too many R&D teams hit the same wall.
They build amazing models...
then run out of compute, speed, or scalability.

That’s where things fall apart.

At Quantori, we built an end-to-end stack that fixes this:
☁️ Cloud HPC for massive simulations
🤖 MLOps for reliable model ops
🧬 AI frameworks tuned for life sciences

From cloudbursting to multimodal AI, we help teams move fast without losing scientific rigor.

Because in science, performance is essential.

90% of sellers treat AI like SaaS.
That’s why 90% of them lose the deal.

SaaS = deployment.
AI = data, trust, and change management.

If the data’s messy, the model fails.
If the buyer doesn’t trust it, the deal dies.

AI sales isn’t about features.
It’s about translation, alignment, proof and building trust.

Different beast. Different playbook.

Mastering AI Sales Essential Knowledge for B2B Professionals

The most powerful currency in AI sales isn’t technology, it’s trust.

AI holds massive promise.
But success depends on one thing:
👉 Becoming the trusted advisor your clients rely on for their toughest challenges.

That’s why one of the most important chapters in my new book is:
📘 “Establishing Trust and Credibility in AI Sales.”

Here’s a quick look inside:
🔑 Be transparent: Show your AI’s strengths and its limits.
🎯 Master your client’s world: Translate AI’s real impact.
💡 Share insight: Become a thought leader, not a vendor.
🤝 Build for the long term: Keep trust growing project after project.

Trust isn’t just a value.
It’s the foundation of every successful AI partnership.

Everyone wants AI in production.
Few have the discipline to make it happen.

MLOps isn’t optional anymore.

Without it:
🚫 Models sit idle
🚫 DevOps can’t scale science
🚫 No monitoring. No feedback. No progress

This isn’t a tech issue.
It’s an operational maturity issue.

MLOps is how you turn experiments into impact.

At Quantori, we help life science teams move from proof of concept → production with real MLOps discipline.

Because without it...
your AI isn’t working.

💡 74% of CEOs say they could lose their job within 2 years if they don’t deliver measurable AI results.

That’s from Dataiku’s new Global AI Confessions Report: CEO Edition, and it perfectly captures the shift we’re seeing across life sciences and pharma.

The message is clear:
The era of “AI exploration” is over.
We’ve entered the era of AI accountability, where strategy, governance, and measurable outcomes define success.

Key insights:
🧠 94% of CEOs believe AI agents could soon advise boards as effectively as humans.
🏁 54% admit competitors already have a stronger AI strategy.
🧬 37% have delayed or abandoned AI projects due to regulatory uncertainty.
⚠️ 94% know employees are already using GenAI tools without approval (“shadow AI”).

For pharma and biotech, the implications are huge:

Translating AI from pilots to platforms is now a C-suite priority.

Governance frameworks, scientific, ethical, and regulatory, need to evolve in step with AI innovation.

Those who build trusted AI frameworks and platforms, not just proofs of concept, will define the next generation of R&D productivity.

Global AI Confessions Report: CEO Edition

Proud to see our vision for agentic AI in Life Science R&D gaining momentum.
 Q-Scientist is redefining how scientists design, test, and learn — faster than ever.
 Details below 👇

Principal and Chief Scientific Officer at Quantori

The future of Life Science R&D is agentic AI.

The buzz at BioTechX Europe this month was incredible! We were honored to present our vision for scientific acceleration with Q-Scientist, our R&D AI/ML platform.

What is agentic AI, and how does Q-Scientist make it possible? It’s about building powerful, flexible workflows using our Multi-Agent Flow Builder. 

This capability lets scientists:
*Design intuitive, powerful workflows without heavy coding.
*Leverage a knowledge library and life science models tailored for genomics,   proteomics, and drug discovery.
*Significantly speed up time-to-insight across the R&D pipeline.

A robust Operations strategy is fundamental to any business' success, but is something that's often considered a luxury.

That's why I set up Mission: Purple - the fractional Operations & Project Management solution for agencies and businesses that strive for that operational excellence, but are held back by budgets.

I have worked with award-winning agencies for over 20 years; defining workflows, process best practice, selecting and implementing systems, and training teams.

I'd love to get your business to that purple patch of operational excellence, too.
