Innovation at the crossroads

The pharmaceutical industry is at a turning point. New, bold approaches are needed to meet the growing demand for effective healthcare solutions. Therapies are still unavailable for many complex illnesses. Observation and analysis are increasingly giving way to innovative technologies which aim to shorten development cycles and achieve progress.

Technological progress is the driving force

Artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum computing play a central role here. AI processes enormous volumes of data, optimises research processes and improves the predictability of therapeutic success. Quantum computers will open up innovative opportunities for molecular modelling, the simulation of complex reactions and the discovery of new and cost-effective drugs.

Synergies for precision medicine

The convergence of both technologies opens up enormous potential. AI in data processing predicts patients' reactions to medication, while quantum computing is overcoming the existing limits of AI in terms of computing power and complexity. This synergy can significantly advance the development of more precise, personalised medicine.

Exploring interfaces, shaping the future

The Annual Congress SATW 2025 is dedicated to the impact of these technologies on pharmaceutical research. Experts will show how AI and quantum information science can work together, reduce clinical risks and accelerate the development of new drugs.

Connecting experts, strengthening collaboration

The conference offers a unique platform for networking leading minds in the areas of pharmaceuticals, AI and quantum research and facilitating an inspiring exchange regarding common challenges, new perspectives and concrete routes to integrated, future-oriented R&D.
