About Pfizer
Pfizer is an innovative pharmaceutical company most well-known for its covid-19 vaccine.
Besides vaccines, Pfizer is active in the fields of oncology, hospital care, immunology,
inflammation, internal medicine, and rare diseases. Because of its relentless focus on
innovation in all the steps that need to be taken to get from foundational research to a
product in the hands of patients, the company was able to act swiftly during the covid-19
pandemic. In plenty of countries across the world – including the Netherlands – Pfizer has a
Healthcare Hub that connects valuable innovative solutions from the external ecosystem
with the relevant departments inside the company.
Why they are our partner
The Netherlands is a country that always has been at the forefront of innovation. Therefore,
Pfizer is keen to learn about innovations outside the company walls that can change the
lives of patients and healthcare professionals or improve internal processes. In Belgium,
Pfizer has been partnering with imec.istart for a few years now, which has proven to be truly
valuable. Therefore, Pfizer decided in 2022 to partner with imec.istart.nl in the Netherlands
to build on this success.
