CRO INC Research has announced a two-year partnership with the Society for Clinical Research Sites (SCRS), a global trade organization dedicated to representing the interests of clinical research sites. INC Research will participate as a Global Impact Partner (GIP), the highest level of membership within SCRS.

Jamie Macdonald, INC Research CEO, said, “Developing and maintaining quality relationships with investigative sites around the world is a critical success factor to accelerating the delivery of new medicines to market. Joining SCRS is one more way INC Research can demonstrate our commitment to sites by actively collaborating with industry stakeholders on initiatives aimed at establishing best site practices.”

As a GIP, INC will participate on the SCRS Global Impact Board at an executive level. Working in tandem with SCRS’ leadership council, the board helps set strategic initiatives for SCRS, which advocates, connects, educates and mentors more than 1,400 sites across 22 countries. By providing its members the ability to participate in discussions and decisions, the organization aims to give sites a stronger, more credible voice and a shared purpose.
