Welcome to Cultivating Development
A crowdfunding program with an entirely new approach to bring our seed-stage ideas to life.
Start Here
We crowdsource ideas from you in our top 3 Development priorities
We distribute a portion of $100K as a seed-fund you use to invest in ideas
All ideas that reach their funding target turn into projects
Consumer crowdfunding like Kickstarter is valuable to an entrepreneur because it generates a signal about what products and services people are willing to spend money on.
Crowdfunding inside AbbVie is valuable because it generates a signal about where to make investments that make the greatest difference to our employees and patients.
Since 2015, Discovery and IRth Care have run crowdfunding programs at AbbVie. Development will be the biggest; we’re inviting 3,500 colleagues from around the world!
