Sanofi Ventures announced an additional $625 million multi-year capital commitment from Sanofi, increasing its total assets under management to over $1.4 billion. This new commitment to the venture fund aligns with Sanofi’s long-term growth ambitions.

Sanofi Ventures is the corporate venture capital arm of Sanofi, investing in top-tier biotech and artificial intelligence/digital health companies that focus on helping patients and transforming the practice of medicine. Since its inception in 2012, the fund has deployed over $800 million across more than 70 innovative companies in biotech and digital health.

By providing essential financial backing and strategic support, the fund is helping to bridge the gap for promising startups, enabling them to advance potentially life-changing therapies through key development milestones. This strategy not only strengthens Sanofi’s pipeline of future innovations but also reinforces the company’s position as a leading catalyst for breakthrough science in healthcare.

With a proven track record of strategic wins and successful exits, Sanofi Ventures has become a powerful engine for scientific progress and strategic growth,” said Paul Hudson, Chief Executive Officer at Sanofi.
