Jason Palasota

President

Jason Palasota, a dedicated professional in the field of clinical research, began his career as a site coordinator at Cetero Research. His experience there fueled a deep respect for the industry and a commitment to improving patient-focused clinical research services. Progressing through roles in proposal development, inside and external business development at notable organizations like Worldwide Clinical Trials, ResearchPoint Global, and IQVIA, Jason developed a keen understanding of the industry's challenges, particularly in relationship and communication gaps. Determined to address these issues, Jason founded Clinitiative Health Research, aiming to bridge the divide between clinical research sites and sponsors/CROs through strong partnerships. His leadership and vision have been pivotal in Clinitiative's rapid growth and success. Under Jason's guidance, the organization has significantly impacted the clinical trials landscape, evident in his conference speaking engagements, high client satisfaction rates, and initiatives focused on patient diversity in trials. Jason's passion and commitment have not only transformed Clinitiative into a leading organization in its field but also demonstrated his unwavering dedication to enhancing healthcare solutions globally.
