WHY JOIN SYNAPSE?
As a company collaborating with Boehringer Ingelheim on a pilot project, you will have the opportunity to establish connections with various business units and functions and to work with meaningful topics, facilitated by BI X. We are in search of companies with innovative solutions to contribute to the program topics outlined.
This fall, companies presenting the most ingenious and fitting solutions will be invited to engage with Boehringer Ingelheim business units on a paid pilot project.
Our long-term goal is to foster and scale successful partnerships that are mutually beneficial.
After an initial success in the healthcare field, we realized that this was an area that the team really liked and where our automated inspection technologies made a lot of sense. So, we looked for the best way to develop in the Pharma industry and Synapse is THE reference program in this field. And the fact that the program combines Industry 4.0, co-development, and health, for us it was a winning trio that would allow us to develop. So, we applied.
