It has also been recognized by the Silicon Review as one of the 50 Noteworthy Global Innovative Companies in 2020, and selected as one of the fastest-growing innovative companies in 2022 by CXO Fortune. Founder PC Zhu said: “With Beijing and Shanghai becoming such powerhouses of innovation, we’ll string together our life R&D lab resources with the Chinese government’s lineup of favorable policies, to deliver a full range of services to life scientists around the world, and to teams who come to China to start their own businesses. We reduce costs and risks associated with biomedical innovation R&D, which saves money and time, unlocks scientists' creativity, and helps founding teams reach their next milestones so much more efficiently.” The company says since it started it has been focused on helping scientists focus on innovation as a means to accelerate the development of the biomedical industry. Interdisciplinary management As well as the R&D platform focusing on new drug discovery and development, gene editing, vaccine development and brain science, among other frontier tech areas, it has also developed an interdisciplinary management team across the life science industry chain that has professional laboratory operation and maintenance experience and R&D experimental capabilities. Lots of biotech giants have used its site including Boehringer Ingelheim, Miltenyi Biotec, Bayer, Charles River, Lilly and AstraZeneca. ATLATL built the first biomedical innovation ecology for streamlining the entire process of drug development from early drug discovery to pre-clinical research in Zhangjiang Pharma Valley, a high-tech zone in Shanghai. It also established a conversion platform related to drug discovery and clinical research in Lingang Special Area, a national level life science and technology industrial park in Shanghai.
