Clinical Trials Sponsorships

 

Benefits of Supporting this Program

Qualified Networking: The intended design of the Blockchain for Clinical Trials Insights Program is to enable a focused group of industry decision-makers to access unbiased and critical information on the value, challenges, and protocols of adopting this technology. The program is designed for a pre-qualified audience of pharmaceutical professionals who have a baseline knowledge of blockchain technology and are looking at the next steps. The sessions’ open- dialogue format enable one-to-one interaction, focus group discussion, and knowledge sharing.

Exclusivity: We often hear, “are there any blockchain technology companies catering to the pharmaceutical/life space?” The uniqueness of the Forum provides sponsors exclusive exposure as the leading providers of technology and services in this space. The authoritative nature of the program provides sponsors one-to-one access with the attendees in way that facilitates discussion so that sponsors can get a realistic pulse on the challenges and true appetite for adoption. Given the nature of this Forum, support opportunities are strategically designed and limited.
