Challenge.

Navigating Complexity.

Roche's Technology and Science team was tasked with mapping and tracking technological advancements across multiple fields. Their goal was not just to create landscape reports but to generate meaningful insights that could guide strategic decision-making. Traditional methods were limiting; they required significant manual effort and often couldn't keep up with the fast-paced changes in technology and innovation.

The team aimed to increase the frequency of these landscape reports while also transforming them into dynamic tools that could continuously reflect the latest industry insights.

"Klaro has significantly enhanced our landscape reporting capacity."

Why Klaro?

Empowering Roche with AI-Driven Market Intelligence.

Roche sought to transform how they approached technology and biomarker landscaping. While traditional databases offered extensive information, the data was often overwhelming and poorly structured, making it difficult to extract actionable insights.

Klaro provided a smarter alternative: an AI-powered platform that scaled their research processes, enabling a more fluid, comprehensive, and meaningful understanding of their topics of interest.

As a Thomas noted, “Klaro, on the other hand, stands out by providing a more meaningful and impactful approach.”

Results.

Driving Strategic Innovation with Advanced Insights.

Adopting Klaro has the potential to transform the Roche Technology and Science team's approach to technology scouting and landscape analysis.

1. Increased Reporting Capacity: The team significantly increased their landscape report output with Klaro, exploring new players more frequently and thoroughly.

2. Expanded Scope: Klaro's capabilities empowered Roche to explore multiple technological fields simultaneously, significantly increasing their reach and visibility into emerging innovations.

3. Refined Decision-Making: With access to in-depth insights into new technology providers, the Technology and Science team can help facilitate faster, data-driven decisions that align with Roche's long-term strategic goals.

“The most prominent impact is certainly finding opportunities much faster than before.” Thomas shares.

Looking forward, the Technology and Science team at Roche Diagnostics is excited about further leveraging the capabilities of Klaro to enhance their approach to emerging trends and technology analysis. By continuously refining their landscape methodologies and integrating deeper insights, the Technology and Science team aims to foster even more meaningful partnerships and drive future innovations.

They’re also excited about upcoming product updates that will allow them to further automate their processes, as well as allowing them to track trends and technologies within topics of interest in real time.
