Inventiva is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company with an expertise in fibrosis, oncology and orphan diseases. We are focussing on diseases with a high unmet medical need where either no treatments are available, such as NASH and Systemic Sclerosis, or the current standard of care leaves important manifestations of the diseases unaffected, as it is the case in many lysosomal storage diseases.

Enterprise Therapeutics is a drug discovery company dedicated to the research and development of novel therapies for the treatment of respiratory diseases. In diseases such as cystic fibrosis, asthma and COPD the lungs become congested with mucus leading to difficulty in breathing. New disease modifying therapies that target the underlying mechanisms of mucus congestion will reduce the frequency of lung infections and improve patient quality of life.
