Greg Meyers

CIO at Bristol Myers Squibb

2024 CODEIUM TECH LEADER: HEALTHCARE

Background

Greg Meyers joined Bristol Myers Squibb as Chief Digital and Technology Officer in 2022, after holding CIO roles at Syngenta and Motorola. At BMS, Meyers leads both the Information Technology function and digital tools that will empower scientists to drive better health outcomes for patients.
BMS has been using artificial intelligence for several years to drive drug discovery. However, Meyers also spearheaded new research experiments with the release of LLM and GenAI tools last year. According to a recent Forbes interview, Meyers has developed a three-pronged approach to using AI internally: developing a responsible AI policy, launching an internal ChatGPT tool to address data governance issues, and forming an AI Collective composed of practitioners from across the company. He and his teams have also launched internal trials with AI to scan thousands of documents for potential insights.
“Digital innovation, computer and data science are the disciplines that will create breakthroughs in our understanding of biology and transform the way the life sciences industry operates at a fundamental level […] The state of artificial intelligence and machine learning in life sciences is similar to where we were with personal computers in the 1980s — we are just getting started and there is so much ahead to discover! Technology and digital capabilities will also catalyze our ways of working — from how we develop medicines, to how we improve patient experience, to how we run our core business operations. We are excited and ready to harness all of the possibilities that lie ahead."
