What is the CORE Symposium?

CORE is an invite-only, half-day event curated for clin ops leaders to have intelligent, energetic conversations around serious challenges in study execution, recruitment, and engagement. But you know we do things differently. From the venue to the content, the CORE experience is nothing like your typical industry conference.

What makes CORE different?

CORE is for doers, not talkers. While other industry events prioritize new innovation over reality, CORE is made for our clin ops attendees who need tactical fixes to the real challenges facing our industry day to day. This also means you'll never step foot in a windowless ballroom or an exhibit hall when you come to CORE--we help our attendees break out of the norm with a unique change of scenery and a fresh format.

What's in store for 2026
