BEAM Alliance was created in 2016 to carry the voice of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) innovating against AntiMicrobial Resistance (AMR).
BEAM works together with stakeholders to shape policies that can improve research and development in the AMR field.
We believe innovation has an instrumental role to play to curb the AMR threat.
Antimicrobial resistance is an unstoppable evolutionary process that makes previously treatable infections potentially fatal.
Innovative products are essential to keep the AMR threat at bay.
BEAM Alliance members develop a broad range of products across 3 axes:
BEAM Alliance proposes and advocates for policies and incentive options to unleash the innovation potential of its members as the development of AMR product is hampered by various hurdles across all axes and suffer from non-optimal evaluation methods.
BEAM Alliance also publishes every year the BeAMRometer, taking the pulse of innovative SMEs and highlighting the difficult situation they face.
