AI Strategy
Novo Holdings partnered with Halfspace to drive a bold digital transformation across its investment and operational landscape, integrating cutting-edge AI to enable faster, smarter, and more impactful decisions.
In Brief
Challenge

In an investment environment where decisions are crucial and information complexity is ever-increasing, Novo Holdings needed a new approach to maintain agility and precision. Traditional methods no longer kept pace with the demands of internal stakeholders, growing teams, and accelerated deal flows. With a mission rooted in improving global health and sustainability, the stakes extended far beyond financial returns.

Solution

Halfspace worked with Novo Holdings to design and implement two core platforms, HALO and OEX, built to embed AI-driven intelligence into both the strategic and operational layers of the organisation. These solutions addressed key bottlenecks in research, decision-making, and back-office functions by harnessing automation, data science, and AI.

Approach to Artificial Intelligence

Adopting a “human-in-the-loop” model, the transformation focused on using AI not to replace expert judgment but to amplify it. HALO centralises fragmented data sources into an intelligent, always-on insights hub for investment professionals, while OEX enables automation of core operational workflows. This dual-platform strategy ensured a holistic transformation—empowering both the front line and the foundation.
