The fourth year of Oracle Industry Connect (OIC) was, overall, an absolute success. Several thousand attendees from around the world and a variety of industries met in Orlando to learn about the latest trends in technology and to hear firsthand how companies have been able to streamline and strengthen their businesses with software solutions from Oracle.
From a life sciences and healthcare (we sponsored this industry track) perspective, the event was also a slam dunk, to say the least. A couple hundred people from the industry, mostly users of Oracle’s clinical, safety, and healthcare applications, gathered to learn how their peers have been able to optimize their clinical, safety, and healthcare operations with the vendor’s systems.
When it comes to speakers, we heard from over 15 pharmaceutical companies, clinical research organizations (CROs), and healthcare institutions, including:
- AstraZeneca
- Bristol Myers Squibb
- Chiltern International
- Covance
- CSL Behring
- Eli Lilly
- GlaxoSmithKline
- GuideWell
- inVentiv Health Clinical
- Mayo Clinic
- Merck
- Moffitt Cancer Center
- Pfizer
- PPD
- SAGE Therapeutics
- Shire Pharmaceuticals
- Vertex Pharmaceuticals
For those we were fortunate to have met at OIC, it was our sincere pleasure. For those we did not see, we hope we will have the opportunity to see you at next year’s event.
