FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
SCRS Announces Call for Submissions for Site Patient Recruitment Innovation Award (SPRIA™) and Site Tank™ Awards
Hanover MD, June 28, 2021 – The Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) announced today that it is now accepting submissions for two prestigious awards given at its annual Global Site Solutions Summit: the Site Patient Recruitment Innovation Award (SPRIA) and the Site Tank Award.
Sponsored by StudyKIK, SPRIA recognizes clinical research sites that have utilized innovative strategies for patient recruitment to achieve enrollment success. In judging submissions, emphasis is placed on patient-directed initiatives that are unique, effective and acknowledge the patient’s perspective on participation. Key elements include achieving or exceeding patient enrollment, study timelines, and budget goals. Learn more about SPRIA and submit your site’s innovative recruitment plan for consideration.
Modeled after the popular television program, “Shark Tank”, the Site Tank award recognizes research sites that have developed technology solutions that enhance and improve clinical research operations and transform business models. In years past, Site Tank finalists have immediately received industry support to develop their idea. Learn more about Site Tank, sponsored by Pfizer, and submit your innovative technology idea for consideration.
Submissions for SPRIA and Site Tank will be accepted through July 31, 2021. After finalists are selected by an independent judging panel, the top three finalists for each award will receive complimentary registration to the 2021 Global Site Solutions Summit where they will present to an audience of sites, sponsors, and CROs attending the 2021 Global Summit. An independent judging panel will ask the finalists questions and the Summit audience will vote to determine the winner.
Winners of both awards will be selected at the Summit which will take place October 1 – 3, 2021 in Hollywood, Florida. Focused uniquely on sites, SCRS Summits provide a venue where sites, sponsors, CROs, professional service providers, and regulators can gather to share best practices for site sustainability.
