adMare BioInnovations
We are building Canada’s life science industry from sea to sea
With a strong track record of globally-competitive scientific discovery, Canadian life sciences is primed to lead the world. To make this a reality adMare BioInnovations uses its scientific and commercial expertise, specialized R&D infrastructure, and seed capital to build strong life sciences companies, robust ecosystems, and industry-ready talent. We re-invest our returns back into the Canadian industry to ensure its long term sustainability.
Drawing our name from Canada’s national motto, A Mari Usque Ad Mare (From Sea to Sea), adMare is a pan-Canadian organization created in 2019, answering the need to align and optimize the Canadian life sciences commercialization landscape.
Since our creation, adMare has firmly established itself as a national leader that is knitting regions together and making a significant contribution to Canada’s life sciences ecosystem.
The road to success
adMare builds companies by partnering with and investing in technology innovators and entrepreneurs — namely academic researchers and emerging Canadian life sciences companies.
The 29 portfolio companies we’ve helped build have attracted more than $2.3B of risk capital. They employ close to 1,000 Canadians and have a combined value of $4B.
Bringing your innovations to life
We translate leading academic research into new companies. We work with scientists across the country to proactively identify innovative research and early technologies that have the strongest potential to be collaboratively translated into new therapeutic products and other novel health innovations around which we can co-create a new Canadian investable life sciences company.
Identifying opportunities
Our Program Development and Partnerships team proactively identifies therapeutic opportunities with commercial potential that have been discovered by Canadian researchers. Our primary focus is on novel and transformative pre-clinical technologies and platforms addressing unmet medical needs to which adMare can add significant value.
Developing & advancing technologies
Once we have identified differentiated early-stage technologies collaborate with the founding researchers to progress the discovery towards the next drug development milestone and investment readiness. adMare dedicates professional R&D scientists, state-of-the-art infrastructure, and commercialization experts to every collaboration. We commit to generating valuable data and IP, and to executing a viable commercial strategy that will be the foundations of a co-founded Canadian company.
Building partnerships
Every adMare company building initiative is a collaboration amongst willing and engaged partners. We bring together the very best from academia, industry, patient foundations, and the investment community, as well as key opinion leaders in the space, to support the advancement of Canadian technologies, and to create new bio-innovation companies.
Leadership
A great company is built by a great team. We work with our co-founders to build an experienced founding management and scientific team to generate a complete and highly-compelling business case to secure private sector investors, grow the company, and deliver impactful therapies to patients.
Spurring growth Reach new heights
We collaborate with existing Canadian life sciences companies in a flexible shared risk/reward model. We bring expertise, infrastructure and investment capital to enable our portfolio companies to further develop their product pipelines, and successfully advance their business to the next inflection point.
