SHANGHAI and MORRISVILLE, N.C., April 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- dMed Global, a full-service Clinical Contract Research Organization (CRO) based in Shanghai, China, and Clinipace Incorporated, a full-service Clinical CRO with headquarters in North Carolina, USA, announced today that the two companies will merge. This merger will meet the needs of fast-moving biotech, pharma and medical device companies, and accelerate the delivery of innovative solutions to patients worldwide.
The combined company will have over 1,600 employees across 22 countries and a strong position as a highly differentiated mid-sized CRO that rivals the leading global CROs in geographic scope, services and therapeutic expertise. The new company's capabilities in North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Latin America compete head-to-head with top-tier services from the leading CROs.

Dr. Tan summarized the opportunity, saying, "Western biotech companies increasingly recognize their need for a strategic partner who can stay on the leading edge of fundamental changes in the global clinical landscape.

We will now be positioned to better serve the global needs of both Western and Chinese companies."
Mr. Monteleone added, "We look forward to helping innovative biotechs, as well as small-, mid-, and even large-cap pharma and device companies, gain faster and better access to the world's largest drug and device markets, the US and China.
