Building a Modern Tech Stack

In Episode 5 of Powered by Data, "Building a Modern Tech Stack," Scott McLean, Dan Loeffler and Christine Demetillo unpack how Life Sciences companies are building those ecosystems today. The conversation moves through the four core layers of the stack (data foundation, engagement, operational and compliance), explores why CRM works best as a system of engagement rather than a system of record and makes the case for capturing data broadly while mastering only what matters to the business. Along the way, the panel digs into the realities of stale license data, the limits of a single source of truth and how empowering field teams with compliant freedom drives both commercial growth and operational maturity.
