“As we double the size of our medical analytics group over the next 12-18 months our acquisition of MedEvoke will enable us to rapidly scale our existing team to support the outsourcing of medical analytics for medical affairs and its cross-functional partners,” said Elaine Ferguson, Chief Executive Officer of MEDiSTRAVA. “MedEvoke is a natural fit to our industry leading medical analytics expertise, and we will continue expansion through investing in and creating new products and services.”

This acquisition enables MEDiSTRAVA to offer comprehensive medical analytics and AI-powered intelligence gathering that is unrivalled in the industry.
The team will function as a core part of MEDiSTRAVA Consulting – a multi-functional, global group of more than 60 strategic specialists from across investor relations and corporate communications, medical and regulatory affairs and Health Economics and Outcomes Research (HEOR) to market access and advanced analytics and technology platforms.
