De Novo Pharmaceuticals

The commercial focus of De Novo is the exploitation of human genomics in drug discovery through in silico drug design. The company attracted £2 million financing in a first VC-backed investment round in April 2000, followed by a second round of funding of £16.75 million in July 2001. Investors in the first round included Avlar Bioventures, Prelude Technology and Cambridge Research and Innovation Limited. Second round investors included Merlin Bioventures, Life Science Partners NV, Quester and FNI Venture Capital, as well as the industrial investors Roche and Incyte Pharmaceuticals. De Novo has already announced Drug Design Partnerships with 3 major pharmaceutical companies (Aventis, British Biotechnology and Organon), and 2 Technology Development Partnerships (with Roche and Sun Microsystems). With new facilities at Vision Park in Histon, the company is currently building a “gene-to-drug” pipeline of its own.
