Marta Kowalska

CluePoints

Marta is a Customer Success Director at CluePoints. She started her career in clinical research over 20 years ago in data management, working at both CROs and Pharma. She then moved into Clinical Operations and study delivery, where she was part of a study team leading the adoption of a new EDC and creating and inputting into processes.
Her clinical operations experience gave her a deep understanding of the importance of a broader clinical trial systems ecosystem, along with the accompanying processes and data flows. This sparked an appreciation for how systems can fit together seamlessly, and sometimes… less so. This made a move into Solutions Consulting a natural progression, allowing her to engage and help companies understand how technologies can support their business goals and explore new possibilities. (Plus, enjoying the opportunity to get hands-on with various systems!)
The broad technological landscape of clinical trials and the applied technologies has always been of interest to Marta, who in her current role is now focusing on risk-based ‘everything’
