We continued doing our jobs with responsibility, being patient and generous with our colleagues and ourselves despite adversity. We are all in synchrony and aligned, with clear objectives and dedication, putting our patients first more than ever!"

"I think Parexel was chosen as the Best CRO due to our focus, strength, and innovation during the most critical year when the world needed us most. We were able to adapt quickly to support our customers all while keeping our patients as the primary focus and with heart. This reflects how deeply invested we are in the well-being of others and I'm so proud to be part of Parexel's Team."

• Muhammad Sharif - Dublin

"Since I joined in early 2021, I have observed that the main reason to be the best CRO is no doubt the hard work of employees and the vision of management.
But above all, the most incredible thing I have seen is the sincere support that every person is sharing within their team and across the departments in order to complete their process/projects successfully."

"We put our patients first for everything we do. We sparkle with the power of innovation. We care about each other, and we are working towards the same goal: find the cure with heart."
