Mr. Pierce co-founded Clinical Ink in 2007 to revolutionize clinical trials by eliminating the complexities and costs associated with paper-based data capture processes. In his role as president, Mr. Pierce leads the strategic direction, development and evolution of the SureSource® platform to constantly meet changing customer needs.
