Come and visit us at booth J15 and meet the team. Our experts will be on hand to share end-to-end clinical trial solutions across all phases, offering Phase I-IV and real-world studies.
Are you looking for a CRO that combines global reach with true regional depth?
As a full-service CRO with over 1,000 employees across China, EMEA, and the Americas. We work with top investigators and KOLs to advance clinical development – from early‑phase research to specialized programs in renal, oncology, autoimmune, and cardiometabolic disorders.
With deep roots in Asia Pacific, we know the regulatory, site, and cultural details that can make or break a trial. In China alone, we partner with over 2,800 research centers and 15,000 medical experts, including strategic relationships with more than 80 institutions – getting sites up and running in three months on average. Whether you’re entering Asia from global markets or taking a local biotech worldwide, we run synchronized, end‑to‑end development across our global footprint, with consistent quality and full regulatory compliance at every site.
