Advances in Clinical Trials Symposium: Faster and Better

Automating data between Electronic Health Records and Electronic Data Capture systems at hospitals

True EHR-to-EDC innovation requires buy-in from both sides—and how IgniteData’s success depends on balancing the needs of engaged clinical sites with the demands of sponsor portfolios. It’s a delicate, dynamic ecosystem—and one that makes the work deeply meaningful.

The Role of Technology in Clinical Trials

Before joining IgniteData, Carson Goff witnessed firsthand how even the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies were still struggling with manual data transcription in 2025. In this clip, he shares how Ignite Data’s solution filled a critical gap that others couldn’t, unlocking a path to faster, more accurate clinical research. What makes Ignite unique, he explains, is not just the technology—but the mission: connecting top researchers and drugmakers to make a real impact on people’s lives.

Understanding Client Needs and Challenges

The Provider Development team at IgniteData takes a different approach—none come from traditional sales. With backgrounds in consulting, project management, and EHR deployment, their focus is on solving site challenges, not selling software. In every conversation, they aim to collaborate, not pitch—and sites notice the difference.

Unique Approach to Business Development

Carson Goff reflects on how recent advancements—like SMART on FHIR, cloud infrastructure, and widespread EHR adoption—have finally made real-time EHR-to-EDC automation possible. What was once just an industry aspiration is now being actively pulled from both sites and sponsors. The demand is clear, the timing is right, and the clinical research world is finally aligned.

How the Industry Is Ready for Real Change

Chin and Carson of Ignite Data explore how EHR-to-EDC automation is reshaping clinical trials. They discuss site scalability challenges, job satisfaction among clinical research coordinators, and how strong sponsor-site relationships are key to progress. The conversation also highlights IgniteData’s company culture and the broader impact of their technology on the pharmaceutical industry.

Rewiring Clinical Trials: Tech, Teams, and Site Scalability

We’re at a moment in clinical research where the pieces are starting to connect — where insights from across studies, teams, and technologies can finally inform each other. The opportunity isn’t just in fixing what’s broken, but in reimagining how we work together across the ecosystem.

It’s not just about efficiency. It’s about alignment — making sure that every improvement, every innovation, brings real value to everyone involved, from frontline caregivers to the patients they serve.

What’s exciting is that this shift isn’t theoretical anymore. It’s happening. And being part of that movement — helping shape what comes next — is a responsibility we take seriously.

Transforming Clinical Trials

It’s encouraging to see data teams already recognizing the value. This feels like a real turning point — not just for sponsors, but for patients too. We're excited to be part of this moment.

The Value of Data Management

This moment matters because it's about bringing real value to everyone involved in clinical research — from sites and nurses to sponsors. We're in a unique position to share what we've learned across different phases and help guide how new technologies roll out in a way that supports shared goals: faster timelines, cleaner data, and better outcomes.

Unlocking Opportunities: Why This Moment is Crucial

Standardization across studies can speed up trials and reduce silos. By highlighting gaps in current processes, we help sponsors see how digitalization can streamline their path to submission.
