ICON and You

Working in a way that goes beyond the traditional CRO

At ICON our reputation is built on enduring partnerships that are driven to advance medicine and make a difference in the world. Since our inception in 1990, we’ve partnered with pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical device clients, collaborating, innovating, and finding new ways together to improve outcomes. This is the lifeblood of our business and the vision that has shaped our strategy more than any other.

The COVID-19 pandemic has taught us that so much more can be achieved when all players in the life sciences and pharmaceutical industries work together, in a truly collaborative way. The opportunity now is to take what we have learned and continue to drive progress.  At ICON, this means working in a way that goes beyond a traditional CRO. It means being your trusted partner.
