ZS's Data Strategy and Partnerships has two pillars. First, we advise top 10 Pharmaceutical/Biotechnology clients on all matters related to Data Strategy (RWE/RWD). With the explosion of healthcare data and new applications, Data Strategy has emerged as a key strategic initiative for many Life Science companies. The team advises clients on operating model, governance, data sourcing and generation, data management, value creation, technology enablement and compliance.

In close collaboration with the Digital and Technology practice, we help diagnose and roadmap the data strategy journey, design, build and operate strategic capabilities. The second pillar is building relationships and partnerships with a wide range of data providers to enable ZS access and use of data in innovative offerings and services.
