Alzheimer's Association Business Consortium (AABC)

The mission of the Alzheimer’s Association Business Consortium (AABC) is to advance Alzheimer’s disease and dementia research through innovation in small- and medium-size biotechnology, diagnostics, medical device and contract research organizations. AABC members work in areas of common interest pre-competitively to advance both the field of dementia research and the goals of its member organizations. They provide leadership and direction to the group’s areas of focus, which include, but are not limited to, collaborations, recognition and visibility, and knowledge and information sharing.Collaborations are essential to companies as a way to share resources, expand infrastructure, save money and potentially create income. The consortium will provide a platform for companies looking for collaboration opportunities within the consortium between member companies and enhance collaborations with large companies and other institutions external to the consortium. Small companies will benefit from publications and positive publicity. As such, the AABC will look for ways to bring companies in this sector to the attention of the Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias community through publications, presentations, and posters.The AABC welcomes new members who are aligned in its commitment to research and innovation.
