FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Hanover, MD, January 19, 2022 – Today, the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS) announced a Global Impact Partnership with Teckro, a clinical trial hub for consistent collaboration between sites and sponsors. As a Global Impact Partner (GIP), Teckro will align with sponsors, CROs, and service providers dedicated to promoting high-level communication and meaningful partnerships between industry stakeholders and clinical research sites globally. With this collaboration, Teckro will help SCRS set and pursue strategic initiatives and directly work with clinical trial sites and industry peers to address challenges of clinical trials.
“At Teckro we believe that clinical trials, which are often the best possible care for many diseases, must be more accessible to people everywhere. It is the sites and trusted physicians, nurses and other staff who are the heart of clinical research and champion for patients. That’s why we are pleased to partner with SCRS to support this active, vibrant community and to participate in initiatives that will help reduce the burden on sites so they are equipped to manage safer, faster and more efficient clinical trials,” said Gary Hughes, Teckro CEO and co-founder.
Sean Soth, Senior VP of Strategy and Global Business Partnerships for SCRS, commented, “Active communication is a critical factor for site success. Teckro is working to make communication among stakeholders easier, providing sites with relevant guidance when they are with patients. As digital innovation continues to evolve for site personnel, tools and ideas for improved communication will make collaboration easier. SCRS is pleased to recognize Teckro’s involvement in the Global Impact Partner program and looks forward to including their contributions and ideas for sites and industry in 2022 and beyond.”
