We partner with healthcare’s most talented startups to generate pioneering innovations that enable patients with severe and chronic diseases to enjoy better and healthier lives.

At UCB, we're dedicated to transforming the lives of individuals living with severe diseases. And as DCTx, we believe in the power of collaboration.

Committed to sustainability, we aim to support startups that prioritize patient-centric innovation.

Together, we can make a positive impact on global healthcare, from improving medication accessibility to addressing social disparities.

 

In early 2022, DCTx launched an innovative program aimed at partnering with healthcare's most talented venture startups, dedicated to enhancing the lives of people living with severe and chronic diseases.

This unique no-equity innovation program is designed to reduce uncertainty in startup growth within the complex healthcare space. Selected startups gain access to industry knowledge, expert feedback and mentoring, enabling rapid validation of their solutions.
