At AstraZeneca, inclusive, open and collaborative ways of working are central to our success.

Partnering with us

Our purpose is to push the boundaries of science, to deliver life-changing medicines, but we can’t do this alone.

We are committed to creating partnerships that bring value for both parties, stimulate innovation and accelerate delivery of new medicines to target unmet medical need. Find out more about AZ partnerships.

Externally sponsored scientific research

Externally Sponsored Scientific Research (ESR) is research that is initiated and managed by a Non-Company Researcher; this can play a key role in contributing to company-related product knowledge and disease understanding, helping us to develop improved medicines for patients.

Find out more about ESR and how to participate.

To submit an ESR research proposal, visit the Evidence Connect platform.

Open innovation

To deliver the next generation of life-changing medicines, we are collaborating with academic and industry researchers to advance disease knowledge and address unmet needs. These collaborations are helping to unlock the full potential of AZ products. Learn more and find collaboration opportunities at the Open Innovation website
