Because of an ever increasing global demand for real-life experience in life sciences consultancy for both Pharma and Medical Devices, Explic8 continues its journey of expansion with the objective to be close to our client-base. We are delighted to announce the opening of our new office in Sydney, Australia.
This key event follows our recent announcement of the opening of our office in Lucerne, Switzerland, and the appointment of Dr. Peter Schulz as Senior Vice President, Pharmacovigilance & Quality.
