This is the second major award for i3Cube in as many weeks, having captured the prestigious AdobeMax Award for Enterprise Productivity just a week ago.
For three years, GCPj’s Clinical Research Excellence awards have recognized excellence in the clinical trials industry, honoring corporate and individual excellence and celebrating innovation throughout the industry. “In the category of Best Technological Development in Clinical Trials – Communication Systems the judges were looking for a system that highlights the growing importance of communication tools in maximising the efficiency and value of clinical research,” said Joanne Payne, editor of GCPj. “i3Cube stood out from the others for its collaborative communications portal. This provides the sponsor, investigative site and CRO with instant communication and access to real-time information, creating efficiencies in time and cost.”
“The clinical trials industry has hungered for i3Cube—an easy-to-use system that connects and automates all of the processes, improving speed, quality, communication and information sharing,” said Glenn Bilawsky, CEO of i3. “This award from GCPj is a validation from our industry of the overall impact i3Cube will have because it is so user-friendly, intuitive, and needed.”
