The goal of this report is to help clinical development service provider sales and marketing organizations understand where decision-makers go to learn about our industry and service provider offerings. Our hope is that these data can help inform your sales and marketing efforts.
That said, we know every service provider is different, and these data are meant to provide buyers with a starting point for their sales and marketing strategic plans. ISR surveyed 150 respondents from pharmaceutical sponsor organizations after screening them to ensure they have appropriate decision-making responsibility for outsourced clinical development service provider decisions for Phase I-IV.
If you work for a pharmaceutical sponsor organization, the data contained in this report can help you prioritize how you learn about industry trends and service providers by understanding the value your peers place on specific activities.
