Evolving Frontiers: Leadership Perspectives on Technology-Driven Transformation in Global Clinical Development

4 December 2025
Participation in the Leadership Forum is by invitation or accepted application only.
The Leadership Forum at the SCDM 2025 India Annual Conference is an invitation-only gathering for senior leaders – both local and global – to explore how pharmaceutical companies are strategically deepening their footprint in India, focusing on the country’s exceptional scientific talent, a rapidly evolving data and technology ecosystem, compelling cost efficiencies, and a strong culture of innovation.

 

Together, we’ll explore how to scale and sustain change across People, Process, Technology, and AI – building future-ready talent, reimagining data-driven operations, and adopting emerging technologies responsibly to deliver faster, smarter, and more compliant trials. We’ll tackle real-world challenges – from adoption hurdles to regulatory alignment – and spotlight how global organizations are already transforming trial delivery through advanced analytics, automation, and collaborative models.
 
This forum is not just about digital evolution – it’s about leading it. It’s about envisioning a globally connected, data-empowered clinical research ecosystem, with India at the forefront of excellence. And it’s about doing it together.
