Dive Deep into Innovation
As a registered attendee for the Innovation Network Gathering, you’ll work shoulder to shoulder with industry leaders to solve the most pressing challenges of clinical trials, technology, and services.
The best part of this event is what you bring and what we’ll work on together.
Dive Team sessions are breakout working groups that gather decision makers and innovators in the clinical trial industry to discuss and find solutions to challenges within the sector for lasting impact beyond the conference.
They are designed to facilitate working shoulder to shoulder with industry leaders, diving into in-depth conversations on challenging topics that produce tangible outcomes.
The term “Dive Teams” are inspired by remarkable individuals that by working together explore the deepest part of the world, the Mariana Trench.
What can we discover and accomplish when we bring the best people together in the pursuit of advancing the Clinical Trial industry for all?
What are Dive Teams?
Small groups (Dive Teams) break out to explore deep questions (Challenger Questions), flag items for the future, and identify doable projects to advance the whole sector.
Challenger Questions: Dive Teams address critical issues within the sector. Participants engage in meaningful dialogue to produce actionable solutions.
Submit Your Own Challenger Question/Topic
We want to hear from the sector about the biggest challenges that need to be tackled. Consider:
What frustrates you about the sector?
What can the sector learn?
What is not being talked about that needs to be?
How Dive Teams Work
Dive Team Topics for 2024
Here are the topics teams took a closer look at and proposed possible solutions for. Based on these conversations, several teams will work beyond the conference to turn ideas into real impact. We’ll provide updates about their progress on the website and newsletter.
Site Voices - Enhancing Protocol Design with On-the-Ground Perspectives
How might we better integrate the site voice into protocol design (and evaluation of tools and technologies)?
Tech Check - Assessing Clinical Trial Tools
How might we better evaluate and score the tools and technologies used in clinical trials?
FFRRIIIICCCTTION - Reducing Trial Burden
How might we reduce burden in clinical trials, for sites, patients and study teams, from design through conduct and close out?
Kids & Rare Diseases - Improving the Experience in Critical Edge Cases
How might we build clinical trial and site practices optimized for families and children facing rare diseases?
Pilot to Practice - Embedding Innovation
How might we embed innovation more quickly into business as usual and minimize time in pilots?
Dissecting Clinical Data—Analyzing What You Need to Improve Decision Making
How can we best leverage clinical data to gather insights, spot trends, identify needs, sharpen decision making, and predict the future?
Responsible AI - Deploying Tools with Intention and Care
How do we advance responsible and ethical deployment of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning?
WILD CARD
What’s a problem in clinical trials this team wants to solve in 48 hours?
Unlocking the Future of Study Optimization with AI
How do we transform clinical research with innovation and technology to augment people and processes for improved study outcomes?
The Path to Precision Monitoring (RBQM):
How might we identify barriers to adopting modernized central monitoring and get solutions for overcoming those barriers?
