MILESTONE: Ailux enters into an AI licensing agreement with UCB for biologics discovery
PARTNERING
Building better therapies for patients is at the heart of every partnership we form. We collaborate closely with our partners to pursue transformative therapeutic differentiation without compromise. Our AI-powered platform has been recognized as a critical enabler in best-in-class drug design and development, helping turn ambitious ideas into realities.
We collaborate with life science innovators around the globe, from multinational pharmaceutical companies and clinical-stage biotech to early-stage startups and venture capitalists. By addressing real-world bottlenecks and de-risking critical stages of development, we co-create next-generation antibodies against challenging targets.
We take a results-driven approach—rooted in validated technologies and data-informed decision-making, delivering reliable antibody drug design in a competitive timeline.
For high-stakes, high-potential programs, i.e., “must-win” opportunities, we pursue multiple complementary strategies to increase the likelihood of success.
We leverage our deep, cross-functional expertise that spans the entire biologics discovery process, fostering partner's long-term success in an evolving therapeutic landscape.

“UCB have a strong legacy of antibody discovery and engineering. We have established unique and powerful single-B cell screening and in vitro display discovery technologies to support hit identification and are pioneers in structure-based and computer-aided optimisation of molecules. The XtalFold™ license takes this further, integrating antibody-antigen structural insights into the entire antibody discovery and optimisation workflow.”
Daniel Lightwood, Head of Antibody Discovery and Optimisation, UCB
“We have a running collaboration with Ailux on a novel immuno-oncology target. The entire team of Ailux engaged in our drug discovery program is very knowledgeable, experienced, and understanding. I would highly recommend Ailux for biologics drug discovery on novel targets.”
