About the Company

This multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company has been on a strategic journey to streamline their learning ecosystem, reducing from over 75 learning systems globally down to 15. In the process, the new standards for LMS, LXP, and LCMS technologies had already been chosen and implemented. With 80,000 employees globally spanning 100 countries and 25 languages, the company recognized the need for an adaptive learning platform to catalyze all learning assets through AI-powered personalization that could be easily integrated and leveraged at scale.
