Month: June 2025

Improving access to medicines and healthcare requires a continued effort to develop new evidence-based solutions that address unmet needs. We engage in scientific collaborations with universities and research centers, start-ups, pharmaceutical companies, hospitals and health maintenance organizations to find external scientific solutions for internal R&D needs. These efforts increase our scientific visibility, while expanding and accelerating our innovative medicines portfolio, in line with the Step-up Innovation pillar of our Pivot to Growth business strategy. Ultimately, these innovation efforts can shorten discovery and development timelines and increase success rates in discovering new drug candidates, as well as finding solutions to advance our pipeline.

Innovation and Collaboration Initiatives

Our approach to innovation is multi-directional, connecting internal needs (identified through meetings and workshops), with external opportunities (identified through deep mapping, our database, AI-based scouting and other conventional approaches). Participation and membership of key industry and trade associations enriches Teva’s network across the industry in line with our strategic focus areas and, as a partner of choice in the biotech ecosystem, we provide access to industry insights and our team’s expertise.

In the USA, we have partnerships with key universities to foster innovation, including Harvard, Thomas Jefferson, Pittsburgh, Oklahoma and Pennsylvania.

In Europe, we have been part of the Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) since 2019. It is Europe’s largest public-private partnership in life sciences and aims to develop next-generation vaccines, medicines and treatments. In 2024 we participated in more than eight IMI consortia – from drug discovery to development. Two new consortia focused on biologics and biomarkers:

• RealHOPE: aims to develop guidelines for improving handling of biologic drugs from the user end (pharmacies and patients/ caregivers).
• European Platform for Neurodegenerative Diseases (EPND): intends to establish a platform for storing and analyzing clinical and biological samples and data for biomarker discovery in progressive loss of structure or function of neurons (neurodegeneration).

A strategic focus in our global innovation and collaboration activities revolves around growing and leveraging the health ecosystem in Israel, given Teva’s deep ties to the country, and historic successes that include academic collaborations.

Our engagement approach in Israel re-started in 2020, and since then we have established approximately 50 projects with Israeli researchers; these have received 18 partnership grants to date from the Israel Innovation Authority, two of which were given additional advanced grant funding in 2024.

Key initiatives in our Israel-focused collaboration include:

• AION Labs: An alliance between Teva and three other global pharmaceutical companies, Amazon and the Israel Biotech Fund, AION creates and supports start-ups focusing on artificial intelligence (AI) in drug discovery and development. We play an active role in AION Labs, supporting with training and engagement. AION has created eight new start-up partnerships and plans to establish two more in 2025. In 2024 we partnered to establish CombinAble, an AION start-up, which focuses on antibody optimization. We also supported Celleryx, a start-up focused on AI early diagnostics of cancer and autoimmune diseases based on cell states.
• Organospheres: We work with multiple start-ups, pharma companies and academic groups through Organospheres, a consortium that is developing a human ex-vivo 3D system that could provide an alternative to animals being used in preclinical studies.
• BioInnovators Forum: Each year we offer 30 specialist PhD and post-doctorate students mentorship and training on translational research, and an annual innovation competition for students to develop solutions to unmet medical needs. Since 2020 the program has attracted over 150 graduates since inception, leveraging the skills of young scientists to drive future medical innovation. In 2024, entries included an at-home detection kit for tuberculosis based on breathing molecular analysis, and an IVF support device for the fertilization and implantation of embryos. This program has also been a source for identifying scientific talent to bolster our R&D function.

Public Health Research

We collect and use public health and epidemiological data to estimate unmet economic, clinical and social needs of patients across our key TAs, including central nervous system, psychiatric, inflammatory and oncological conditions. Our research focuses on understanding the burden of illness, examining new clinical educational tools and evaluating ways to ensure patients have access to necessary treatments and enable HCPs, payers and other decision-makers to focus on areas with the greatest need. We can also identify appropriate patient populations and design clinical trials with relevant inclusion and exclusion criteria to benefit the maximum number of patients with unmet needs. In 2024, we presented our research at 176 congresses and published 55 peer-reviewed articles across scientific and medical journals.

NEW YORK, June 16, 2025/3BL/ – The Coach Foundation announces a transformative $20M investment to advance opportunities for under-resourced young people who have the courage to make their dreams a reality – nearly doubling its commitment to the North American Dream It Real program by 2030 through multi-year grants to key partners and additional support. This bold expansion marks a new chapter for the Foundation’s flagship scholarship initiative, now in its seventh year, accelerating the Coach Foundation’s ambitious goal of awarding 10,000 scholarships by 2030 and putting the Foundation on track to meet that target early.

The Dream It Real program is the Coach Foundation’s signature initiative, rooted in the Foundation’s mission of creating opportunities and removing barriers for the next generation through collegiate scholarship, mentorship and other resources. The increased commitment comes as the Foundation celebrates remarkable outcomes from its Dream It Real scholars: 97% of students are on track to graduate college on time*—a stark contrast to the 21% national average for students from similar backgrounds. Additionally, 94% of Dream It Real scholars are first-generation college students who graduate with 88% less debt than the national average.

Through strategic partnerships with leading education organizations Bottom Line and The Opportunity Network, the Coach Foundation continues to dismantle barriers to higher education and drive lasting change for young people as they follow their dreams. To date, the Foundation has provided over 7,000 scholarships to young people around the world.

“This investment represents our unwavering commitment to the young people we support,” said Todd Kahn, Coach CEO and Brand President. “With an expanded investment in North American programs, we’re accelerating our impact and scaling what we know works. These young people are achieving remarkable outcomes and we’re committed to helping even more of the next generation realize their potential and shape the future. Our new 2030 goals will ensure we can reach even more students who deserve access to pursue their dreams.”

The $20M announcement was made during the Coach Foundation’s signature annual Dream Day convening on Thursday, June 12. This year’s Dream Day was particularly special as it celebrated a unique milestone—recognizing the first official cohort of graduating Dream It Real scholars while simultaneously welcoming the program’s largest and newest cohort of students.

With over 400 young people in attendance and inspiring conversation from WNBA players Kiki Iriafen (Washington Mystics) and Aneesah Morrow (Connecticut Sun), the event embodied this year’s theme, Dream Horizons—a powerful turning point where one chapter ends and another begins. The day served as a collective moment to ignite inspiration and look boldly toward the future, with activities including speed mentoring, manifestation stations and interactive workshops.

With this new commitment, the Coach Foundation will continue to advance its mission of helping young people reach their highest potential—driven by the belief that all young people should have access to pursue their dreams.

By day, Jim Watts is a leader on the Regions Consumer Risk Services Team. But Thursday morning, he was delivering some truth bombs to students from Wenonah High’s Academy of Hospitality and Tourism.

As part of Regions’ Reality Check, students from the academy were undergoing a fast-paced strategy game intended to help them understand real-world finances.

Watts’ contribution? Telling them about the need to rein in subscription services, the silent killer of any well-intended budget.

“Basically, we’re giving them the critical decision skills so that when they have families and jobs and children, they’ll be better prepared,” Watts said. “What I like is seeing the light bulbs go off when they suddenly realize what their parents and families go through.”

The Reality Check moment was held during the first round of the 2025 Regions Tradition, inside the shade of the new Coca-Cola® Spectator Village tent next to the driving range. As Champions Tour pros fine-tuned their swings before taking on the course, Keren Treme, Regions Financial Education Trainer, delivered fast financial facts for the students.

“Financial education is the foundation of most things you want to do in life,” said Treme, who also serves a member of Regions Better Life Institute. “And that starts with money.”

Reality Check takes students through a whirlwind of financial situations, beginning with a salary, job and family size chosen at random. Students then must navigate a range of situations – from Netflix to transportation costs, food, room and board and something no one thinks about.

“Unexpected events,” said Regions’ Amy Jones. “That could be a flat tire, a trip to the doctor, a speeding ticket or a dentist visit.”

As Jones reeled off each potential life hurdle, the groans from students became more audible.

And that’s just what Diann Pilgrim wanted to see. A teacher at Wenonah and part of the Academy since its 2014 inception, Pilgrim and her students are familiar with Treme, whom they see multiple times a year for financial education.

The day at Greystone Golf and Country Club is something students begin anticipating for a year, finally getting to spend the day at the Regions Tradition as juniors.

“They’re seeing on paper what Mom and Dad and grandparents go through,” Pilgrim said. “That really is a reality check.”

But for Pilgrim’s students, that’s just one slice of a more expansive learning experience on the day.

“On top of Reality Check, this is about tourism,” Pilgrim said. “This is the career our students are preparing for, so they look forward to coming every year. They know they’ll not only learn something, but they’ll also have fun.”

Threats to agriculture — ranging from water scarcity to soil degradation, biodiversity loss, and climate extremes – are becoming increasingly material and measurable. While proactive measures to help the sector adapt to these threats often rely on philanthropic and public funding, the right approaches can enable private capital to unlock value in investable solutions.

Globally, 87% of agricultural lenders anticipate climate change as a material risk to business (EDF and Deloitte). A great example in recent news is climate impacts on chocolate production. Rising temperatures and shifting rainfall patterns are significantly disrupting cacao crops, particularly in West Africa, affecting both the quantity and quality of beans. As a result, cocoa prices have surged, posing substantial risks to supply chains and profitability for businesses reliant on cocoa products.

There’s an urgent need for agricultural adaptation solutions that aim to enhance the resilience and reliability of food systems by addressing climate-related risks. Such strategies include both on-farm actions (such as climate-resilient seeds, water management, and crop diversification) and off-farm actions (such as technical assistance, insurance, and market access improvements). When done right, they can reduce risks, boost productivity, and stabilize returns, making them attractive long-term investments.

The gap between what’s possible and what’s practiced isn’t just a flaw in the system; it’s a signal for those bold enough to act.
