    Tips for Avoiding International Business Blunders
    Imperial Corporate Blog
    Oct 2014
    I remember November 2006 like it was yesterday. I was on a 10-day assignment in St. Petersburg, Russia, as managing editor of my then-employer’s flagship monthly magazine. Among other issues, I was there to cover efforts to stem the surge of HIV infections in Russia’s government-run orphanages. It was my first trip to Europe and to say I was both excited and apprehensive is an understatement, especially given the comments of well-meaning colleagues who’d gone before me.

    Developing Regulatory-Compliant Patient Materials
    Imperial Corporate Blog
    Jan 2014
    Every study needs a voice — messaging that communicates the trial sponsor’s core objectives. Patient recruitment professionals provide this through compelling content and artful designs that resonate with target audiences and inspire study participation. But beyond being current and compelling, study collateral must also be regulatory-compliant.

    What's In a Name? The Power of Study Branding
    Imperial Corporate Blog
    Sep 2013
    A study brand does more than just identify; it distinguishes. So choose carefully, and ensure the name embodies the essence of the campaign. Brand names should be vetted across cultures to ensure relevance and appropriateness. To be effective, a brand name must meet 3 basic requirements: functionality, universality and simplicity.
