Westlake Village, CA: Marcus Evans today announced the Evolution Summit 2027, an invitation-only gathering of senior clinical trial executives, taking place 19-20 January 2027 at the Four Seasons Hotel.
The Summit will bring together clinical development leaders from across the pharmaceutical industry to benchmark strategies for strengthening trial execution amid rapidly evolving technology, regulatory expectations and development models. Through executive case studies, peer benchmarking and closed-door discussions, delegates will examine practical AI implementation, patient-centered trial design, ICH E6(R3) adoption, global trial strategy and evolving site and CRO partnerships.
Confirmed speakers include Scott Gottlieb, MD, former Commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (2017-2019), alongside senior clinical operations leaders from GSK, Eli Lilly, Genmab, J&J Innovative Medicine, Gilead Sciences, Jazz Pharmaceuticals and AstraZeneca’s Evinova, among others.
“The Evolution Summit equips senior clinical leaders to strengthen trial execution amid rapidly evolving technology, regulatory expectations and development models,” organizers noted, highlighting the program’s focus on enabling leaders to challenge established operating models and prepare their organizations for emerging approaches, including Real-Time Clinical Trials.
As an invitation-only event, the Summit is designed to ensure a curated environment where clinical trial executives engage directly with vetted suppliers and solution providers whose offerings align with their strategic priorities, moving beyond traditional, time-intensive vendor selection processes.
Key themes for 2027 include harnessing intelligent innovation, rethinking trial execution, strengthening the trial ecosystem, modernizing clinical trial standards, improving trial participation and advancing digital clinical trials.
The Evolution Summit is produced by Marcus Evans, a global media, corporate marketing and information company with 40 years of experience producing premium business events across 59 worldwide locations.
