Title

President

Colin helped to found Isomorphic Labs and is our President. He and Demis have worked together for over a decade at DeepMind where he led the Applied AI team.

Colin joined Isomorphic Labs from Google DeepMind, where he was its Chief Business Officer. There he led business and technology teams developing and applying cutting-edge AI research to enhance products and to deliver business growth across Google and Alphabet.

It was also at Google DeepMind where Colin built and led the team which turned DeepMind’s extraordinary AlphaFold research breakthrough into a fledging business. That’s where Isomorphic Labs was born.

Colin enjoys bringing together world-class, interdisciplinary teams to tackle ambitious goals, particularly where technology makes the difference. He is responsible for running the company day to day, and for delivering on the CEO’s vision.

Originally trained as an electronics and software engineer, Colin’s experience benefits from having led teams and businesses from start-ups through to business units within giant mutli-nationals. From telecoms, to finance, sports, tech and now pharma, Colin’s broad business background allows him to bring fresh, insightful perspectives and a tried-and-tested ability to deliver technology-enabled business growth and innovation.

“For our partners and for patients, my goal is to ensure that at Isomorphic Labs we deliver for you. I know that every day counts, and with the extraordinary team we’ve assembled I believe we have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to transform drug discovery, getting better medicines to the people that need them faster. It's a privilege to play a part in achieving this mission.”
