Abhishek, Swetabh and Richard transform drug discovery using machine learning!

The exponential growth of biomedical molecular data has reduced its usability, eventually slowing down the drug discovery process, making it more expensive. Elucidata’s proprietary SaaS platform - Polly, uses machine learning (ML) to accelerate the drug discovery process. The platform hosts a rich archive of over 230,000 multi-omic datasets, curated semi-automatically, with over 50,000 new datasets added each month.

Today, Elucidata has 35+ research partners from premier biopharma companies and research labs across the globe using Polly and supports the discovery programs at Pfizer, Agios Pharmaceuticals, Genentech and Yale.

A relationship built on encouragement, trust and endless support
IvyCap and Ashish have been phenomenal partners in our growth journey. It has been over a year since my first call with Vikram, and every subsequent interaction with IvyCap has deepened our relationship. As a first time founder, I have found their contributions to go far beyond their capital investment. I am thrilled to have them on our side as we continue to establish Elucidata as a market leader. We greatly value the partnership we share with Ivy Cap and look forward to the journey ahead."

CO-FOUNDER & CEO
We have been associated with Ivy Cap since December last year. My team and I have worked closely with Ashish Wadhwani. His advice has been invaluable to us on countless occasions. He has guided us with his expertise and domain knowledge to face many challenges which an early age startup faces. He is a great venture capitalist and a committed member of the team who supports in navigating through critical challenges with ease. Ivy Cap has helped us with reaching out to domain experts for various needs and has been very accessible. Their market knowledge, business acumen and network have ensured the organization’s optimum growth. Special shout to the team when they extended the hand of support during the Covid -19 pandemic. We are grateful for their ongoing support."
