Fusion42 · 22 July 2026 · Fusion42 review

Big Pharma and AI biotech partnerships are stalling over who owns and controls AI-generated drug discovery data. Data rights, training set ownership and portability have become deal-breakers in biopharma M&A and licensing negotiations.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Digital Health.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

If you're selling AI drug discovery to Big Pharma, the deal now hangs on data: who trains on what, who owns the results, and whether the buyer can port your model to their own systems. Get this clause locked before you build the partnership or the deal dies in legal.
