Top 10 CRO Solution Providers 2022
The CRO industry is highly fragmented with hundreds of small to mid-sized companies amid low industry barriers to entry. However there are a small number of large, full-service, global CROs offering broad therapeutic and development expertise with substantial scale, capabilities, IT systems infrastructure and data analytics capability. Over the past few years, there has been some consolidation in the CRO industry, leaving only a handful of larger CROs with the global scale and infrastructure, therapeutic and development expertise to support and fulfill the demanding drug development programs of biopharmaceutical and medical device companies. Moreover, the technological adoption including AI and machine learning tools are rapidly increasing in the CRO space.
At this juncture, as companies around the globe are struggling to find the right solutions provider, we’ve developed this special edition on CRO Solution Providers 2022. The companies listed below are shortlisted by our team of researchers, CEO, CTOs and healthcare solutions experts. We present to you “Top 10 CRO Solution Providers 2022.”
