Discover how framing your business needs first can help to reach the optimal intralogistics solution, whether manual, semi or fully automated. 

Many companies begin transformation projects with automation as their target. Whilst automation is a fantastic tool, it should be seen as the vehicle to get to where you want to be, rather than the end goal itself. It’s also not the only option, so making the right choice of vehicle can have a big impact on which destination you reach. In this webinar, we’ll discuss how taking a step back and looking at your operation can help to truly identify the best intralogistics solution for your business operations.

Is Automation My Destination?

Optimizing Patient Recruitment & Retention in Influenza Studies

Join Inizio Evoke and Professor Georgina Charlesworth of University College London’s (UCL) Faculty of Brain Sciences for an unmissable discussion on our revolutionary new report, Transforming Bias in Healthcare. This webinar will delve into the hidden epidemic of bias in healthcare and its profound impact on patient outcomes, offering actionable insights to address this critical issue. “It’s no exaggeration to say that bias kills,” asserts Corrina Safeio, President of Inizio Evoke. With alarming statistics suggesting that a million premature deaths in the UK over the last decade are linked to health inequality, the urgency of this research cannot be overstated. Our report, the first global systematic review of healthcare professional (HCP) bias, uniquely, for the first time, measures the impact on patient outcomes.  Led by our esteemed behavioural science strategists Fernanda Trevisan and Ellie Glew, they explore biases stemming from racial, gender, socioeconomic, and cultural prejudices.

Discover the shocking truths uncovered in our study: 
• Gender Bias: Women often receive substandard care compared to men.
• Age Bias: Older patients are frequently given less information and fewer treatment options.
• Racial and Ethnic Bias: Minority ethnic groups face significant disparities in care.
• And more…..

This webinar will explore how these biases influence diagnostic decisions, treatment plans, and patient interactions globally, and their implications for the pharmaceutical industry. Join Fernanda Trevisan, Ellie Glew and Prof. Georgina Charlesworth as they present comprehensive analyses and offer insights into what pharmaceutical companies can do to mitigate these biases. Don’t miss the opportunity to be part of a conversation that could transform healthcare for the better. Secure your spot today!

Clinical Trials: How effective patient engagement shapes key decision making

Recent trends in corporate governance (CG) and M&A are presenting great opportunities for expansion of gaming businesses globally. Increasingly, we are witnessing legalization of gambling and greater regulation in other emerging jurisdictions. All this, at the same time, represents major challenges for transnational gaming companies: How to maintain the highest compliance standards and best industry practices in those jurisdictions that have lax or developing regulations? How can preventive, effective and achievable CG controls be established so as not to incur sanctions that jeopardize the licenses of international major operators in their countries of origin with stricter regulations?

Clinical trial patient recruitment and retention remains one of the key challenges to successfully bringing a new therapeutic to market. An estimated 85% of clinical trials face delays due to enrolment issues [1,2], and poor recruitment is a common reason for discontinuation [3]. Of those successfully enrolled, around 30% are likely to drop out [4], which increases costs for sponsors and threatens the viability of the trial itself.

Directly supporting patients from prescreening to study endpoint can help minimize delays and safeguard against early termination, but this can be difficult for hard-pressed sites. Join us as we discuss the most common patient support challenges – as described to us by YOU – and how our new Navigator service can solve them by giving patients a more personalized clinical trial experience and consistent contact, alleviating the burden on sites, and ensuring a sponsor’s study runs efficiently to help accelerate patient access to life-changing treatments.

We will share our insight into why the ‘human touch’ can elevate your in-study patient engagement to the next level and how this permeates through our Navigator service to benefit patients, sites and sponsors. You will also hear from a sponsor that has benefitted from our expertise: the difficulties they faced, the solutions we implemented and the difference we made. And we will share feedback from clinical trial participants about what they think of our support.

Solving your biggest patient recruitment and retention challenges

The presence of so-called “grey-market machines as illegal ways to gamble continue to create legal and regulatory issues for the gaming industry, as operators and regulators grapple with how to address a wide range of alternative ways to gamble including illegal slot machines operating as “games of skill.”  In addition, there has been a considerable expansion of “free to play” od co-called “social casino” gaming options in the US markets.  This panel will provide an update on the existing US legal challenges against the gray market and evaluate what regulators and operators can do together to combat the proliferation of “gray” slot machines.  In addition the panel will update how peer-to-peer skill game contests, freemium gaming (a/k/a “social casinos”), and daily fantasy sports variants remain unregulated but have been challenged by civil litigation, and similar issues being faced around the world.

Moderated by Bill Gantz, a Partner with Duane Morris, the panelists include:
• Daron Dorsey, Executive Director, AGEM
• Wulf Hambach, Partner, Hambach & Hambach
• Jeff Morris, Vice President – Public Affairs & Government Relations: PENN Entertainment
• Michael Pollock, Senior Policy Advisor, Spectrum Gaming Group

The Blurred Lines between Legal, Grey and Illegal Ways to Play

Technology is a driving component of the growing online sports betting and iGaming landscape in the U.S. and globally. The rise in uses of technology for operational purposes has also created opportunities to enhance compliance processes. From financial crime detection and anti-fraud measures to exploring data outputs for responsible gaming purposes, technology solutions focus on how an increasingly accessible amount of data can be leveraged for compliance efficiencies and regulatory expectations. How are systems being utilized to capture relevant information? How does the increasing focus on artificial intelligence play into solutions? Hear from industry leaders as they discuss their experiences, uses of technologies and their thoughts on applicability for compliance purposes.  

Moderated by Bob Boyle, Senior Manager at EY, the panelists are:
·         Gabrielle Angle, Director – Government Relations & Licensing at GeoComply
·         Patrick Bland, Chief Technology Officer at Acres Technology
·         Laura McAllister Cox, Chief Compliance Officer, Rush Street Interactive

How Technology is Playing a Significant Role in Gaming Compliance Programs

Putting the patient first has never been higher up the agenda throughout the drug development process, but can we further fine-tune our approach?

Tune into this webinar where we ask:
• How important is early patient engagement to business success.
• How do you ensure the patient voice is as ‘loud’ in later stages
• Whose responsibility is it to ensure the patient voice is heard

Viewers will come out with a deeper understanding of how to best keep the patient voice alive through all stages of drug development.

Keeping the patient voice alive through all stages of drug development

For clinical trial participants, navigating their way through a study can sometimes seem daunting and complicated. Without the right support, around 30% are likely to drop out [1], resulting in extra financial costs for sponsors and potentially placing the future of the trial in jeopardy.

However, sites don’t always have the time and resources available to commit to ongoing and consistent patient engagement. In our upcoming webinar, we will discuss common challenges participants and sites face when it comes to engagement and how our new ‘Navigator’ service is helping to change the game.

Hear how our new patient-centric service benefits patients, sites and sponsors by
ensuring patients get the support they need for the best clinical trial experience possible
decreasing the risk of early trial termination by improving the retention of participants until the very end of a study
reducing the burden on sites by performing a second layer of pre-screening, allowing sites to focus on the science.
