The biggest deals in pharma don't stall because of the science. They stall because of procurement. Here's what we learned.
In pharma, data security isn't a formality. A molecule in development could represent billions in future revenue.
The IP sitting inside a client's optimization campaigns is among the most sensitive data they own. Of course procurement and IT teams are rigorous about who touches it.
Third-party certification isn't about having better security. It's about proving it and in regulated industries, that distinction matters enormously.
One thing that struck us: almost every client security questionnaire asked nearly identical questions. Doing this once - properly and in a structured way - means we can now answer them efficiently and consistently across every future procurement process.
With @ReactWise being ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II certified, we expect future enterprise deals to move significantly faster as a result.
If you're building deep tech for regulated industries: don't treat compliance as a box to check later. Treat it as a commercial enabler.
