The AI Drug Discovery & Development (AIDDD) Summit is a flagship event in Kisaco Research’s life sciences portfolio, representing one of the fastest-growing communities in pharma innovation. Since its launch in 2022, AIDDD has evolved from a niche meeting on AI in early discovery into a global summit covering the entire R&D value chain, from biology and chemistry through to process development and clinical trials. The 2025 Boston edition hosts over 500 attendees and 100+ speakers, making it the largest and most influential AIDDD to date. This continued growth reflects the sector’s accelerating adoption of AI and the summit’s unique position as a trusted, neutral forum uniting scientists, technologists, and R&D leaders across the pharmaceutical ecosystem.
