Our take
Veeva was created out of a predicted need for cloud-based enterprise software at a time when this software was nascent, and when current systems were archaic and cumbersome to use. By focusing on the life sciences sector, the company fills a niche to help some of the most operationally complex businesses run efficiently.
Veeva has managed to position itself as the go-to solution for large and growing companies in the life sciences sector by offering fully comprehensive cloud solutions that support the most critical functions from R&D to commercial.
The company has over 800 customers, ranging from the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies, such as AstraZeneca, to emerging biotechs. For future growth, Veeva looks to the continual development of its services and expansion of its customer base. Its 2024 launch of the Veeva Compass Suite for commercial data products gives a more comprehensive view of patient information and exemplifies how Veeva is strengthening its product to meet future challenges.
