FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Ellicott City, M.D., June 30, 2015 – The Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS), the global trade organization fully dedicated to representing the interests and voice of clinical research sites, today announced that Quintiles will host a Site Partnership Symposium at the Global Site Solutions Summit in October. The symposium, which is scheduled for Thursday, October 8, from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm., signals Quintiles’ dedication to furthering the important dialogue between sites in areas that matter to sites.
The SCRS Site Partnership Symposium is a new program feature for the 2015 Global Site Solutions Summit, which will take place October 8-11, 2015, in Amelia Island, FL. The Symposium is an unprecedented format through which leading sponsors and CROs engage in high-level dialogue and directly interact with up to hundreds of site decision makers at one time. The Symposium focuses on promoting knowledge and mobilizing insight into study pipeline opportunities and will be included as part of every site executive’s admission to the Global Summit.
“I’m very excited that Quintiles has embraced this unique opportunity to speak directly with sites about the path Quintiles is taking to engage more deeply with sites and to also share their upcoming pipeline of clinical studies,” SCRS President Christine Pierre said. “We couldn’t ask for a better partner to help us to introduce this new Summit offering. As the leading global CRO, Quintiles is uniquely poised to benefit as much as the sites attending and we are quite appreciative of their ongoing commitment to the sites through their collaboration with SCRS.”
Registration for this new program feature is available to all site executives attending the Global Site Solutions Summit.
