What’s Next in Science is accelerated discovery
Scientific discovery is driven by two forces: the development of new capabilities, and the relentless tenacity of the world’s sharpest minds.
We see it as our duty to accelerate scientific progress by developing cutting-edge technologies, demonstrating scalable processes, and deploying new models of collaborative innovation.
This is how we will tackle the world’s most pressing issues, together.

Featured
The Urgency of Science
We as a society need to implement scientific thinking at all scales to find new methods and solutions to the world's most pressing challenges.
IBM 5 in 5
Radically accelerating the process of scientific discovery will enable our sustainable future.
Strategic workstreams
Supercharging the scientific method
We’re creating novel solutions to supercharge the scientific method, from conducting background research to testing hypotheses and analyzing results.
Building communities of discovery
We’re bringing together the sharpest minds across industry, government, and academia to solve problems collaboratively using our tools and capabilities.
Impacting at scale
We’re applying deep technical expertise to the most pressing global challenges: helping humans live longer and healthier lives, preparing society for the future of work, and mitigating the effects of climate change.
Advancing exploratory science
We’re exploring the unknown reaches of science, from manipulating single atoms, to creating new materials that don’t exist in the natural world, to exploring how biological systems might help improve man-made technologies.
