  • Halo
    Ceo / Founder
    Halo 2020 - Present
    Chicago, Illinois, Us
    Keeping pace with innovation requires a data-driven network approach - relationships matter and science is unpredictable. Halo is a tech platform that helps corporate R&D teams discover new technologies, build relationships with the researchers and startups behind them, and more efficiently scale external partnerships globally through the power of networks and AI. We work with Takeda, Bayer, Eli Lilly, PepsiCo and P&G, among others."Halo has given us a lot of new and fresh ideas that line up with our business needs, great visibility into what universities are focused on, and who’s doing what in our field. It's also given us much broader reach than through traditional channels. That’s been exciting.” -Matt Muller, PhD, Director of R&D at Baxter
