New local entity supports closer engagement with Korean clinical research stakeholders and greater awareness of Scout’s site and participant support services.
Scout, a premier provider of clinical trial services, announces the establishment of a legal entity in South Korea, strengthening its local presence and supporting closer engagement with the country’s clinical research community.
The new entity reflects Scout’s continued investment in supporting sponsors, CROs, research sites, and participants in South Korea. Scout provides participant travel and logistics support, payments and reimbursements, and direct assistance throughout the clinical trial experience.
For research sites, that support can reduce administrative work associated with participant transportation, reimbursement, and reconciliation. Scout can also coordinate transportation and accommodation directly with participants, provide concierge support for complex travel needs, and respond to participant questions throughout the study.
“Research sites in Korea are managing significant operational demands while also working to support participants through the practical realities of clinical trial participation,” said Daniel Kim, Manager, Site Strategy and Engagement, Scout. “Establishing a formal presence in Korea gives us an opportunity to work more closely with the local clinical research community and introduce support that can reduce burden for both sites and participants.”
Scout currently supports clinical research programs in more than 100 countries, with services spanning participant support, site engagement, and clinical meeting planning. Establishing a Korean legal entity builds on that global experience while creating a stronger foundation for local relationships and continued growth in the market.
Scout plans to continue building awareness among Korean clinical research organizations and working with local stakeholders to better understand where participant and site support can address operational challenges.
