Veeva R&D and Quality Summit

Boston | October 19-21, 2026

Powerful Community, Fresh Ideas

Day 0

Veeva SiteVault Best Practices: Join fellow SiteVault peers as they share proven strategies from the front lines of research. Leaders from Boston Children’s Hospital, the University of Pennsylvania, and Geisinger Health system will share the processes and tools they use to make their ISF management efficient, and how they leverage SiteVault as a tool to scale research capacity. Attendees will explore critical features, adoption strategies and best practices to keep their site ahead of the curve for tomorrow’s trials, and leave with tangible recommendations and peer connections to carry through the rest of Summit and beyond.

Step into the design process and directly influence the future of sponsor-provided technology. Participants will provide real-time feedback on current product experience and evaluate early-stage designs spanning the entire trial lifecycle—from initial feasibility to final study archival — all while enjoying a casual lunch with site and sponsor peers.

By sharing your front-line experience, you will help develop Veeva solutions to enable seamless site-sponsor collaboration for tomorrow.

Join site, sponsor and CRO leaders in a hands-on, collaborative workshop focused on shifting site and sponsor engagements from study-by-study transactions to long-term strategic alliances. From feasibility to data exchange, cross functional teams of sites, sponsors and CROs will partner to tackle challenges throughout the study lifecycle.

Through interactive discussions and fast-pasted presentations, participants will design actionable frameworks that make sites and their sponsors more efficient, learn from each other, and expand their networks along the way.

Kick off Summit at a dedicated happy hour focused on bringing the research site community together. Connect with peers and celebrate ahead of the welcome reception!

Day 1

Join the Veeva Site Advisory Council (SAC) as they share this year’s survey results and case studies. Council members will lead interactive discussions on the findings and explore the path forward to improve the site experience.

Discover how Veeva SiteVault’s unified platform has created a connected core framework for site business operations, sponsor integration, and intelligent automation.

Research sites have a lot at stake when it comes to public policy—but what issues matter most? This interactive conversation with the Clinical Leader’s Chief Editor and Veeva’s VP of Public Policy will unpack what’s happening now, how it impacts trials, and how Veeva is advocating for sites.

Day 2

Enjoy your morning breakfast while walking through a Site’s day in the life. This interactive demo session will highlight end to end workflows in SiteVault and other Veeva tools, with emphasis on improving efficiencies between sites and sponsors.

Discover a site-centric eSource strategy that breaks the cycle of disconnected tools. Unpack how FHIR-based APIs enable automated data transfer from EHR to EDC, eliminate manual re-entry and source data verification (SDV), and empower sites to manage one unified platform across their entire portfolio.

Join site, sponsor and CRO leaders in a hands-on, collaborative workshop focused on shifting site and sponsor engagements from study-by-study transactions to long-term strategic alliances. From feasibility to data exchange, cross functional teams of sites, sponsors and CROs will partner to tackle challenges throughout the study lifecycle.

Through interactive discussions and fast-pasted presentations, participants will design actionable frameworks that make sites and their sponsors more efficient, learn from each other, and expand their networks along the way.

Step into the future of enterprise site operations with leaders from AdventHealth as they showcase a unified national network model. Discover how consolidating under a single Clinical Trial Agreement (CTA), centralized IRB oversight, and unified CTMS/EHR builds a scalable, dramatically improved trial infrastructure.

Then, explore high-impact applications of AI in clinical research with Velocity clinical research and master the practical strategies needed to implement them safely across a site. Examine best practices for maintaining system validation, managing AI audit trails, and seamlessly integrating secure tools into existing workflows.

Preview Veeva eSource, a new application for sites. See how Veeva eSource connects with Veeva EDC to eliminate paper, reduce the need for SDV, and simplify data collection for sites, data managers, and CRAs.

Discover firsthand how research sites have overcome operational challenges, implemented innovative solutions, and share practical lessons learned.

Explore how patient advocacy is shaping clinical research by influencing trial design, participant engagement, and collaboration across the clinical research ecosystem.
