- A Record Number of Customers for Veeva Quality — This quarter saw a major milestone with Veeva Vault Quality, as more than 500 customers are now using at least one Vault Quality Suite product, including more than 200 Vault Training customers. Strong momentum in the second quarter included a record 52 Vault Quality customer wins and significant progress on Vault QMS projects with enterprise customers. New product innovations in Vault LIMS and Vault Validation Management are progressing well and will start working with early-adopter customers later this year.
- Groundbreaking Insights from Veeva Business Consulting — Veeva Business Consulting published the Veeva Pulse Field Trends Report, a first-ever industrywide view of global customer engagement based upon more than 130 million quarterly HCP interactions. With a unique foundation of data-driven insights and a deep knowledge of Veeva products, Veeva Business Consulting had a record revenue quarter and is quickly becoming a strategic resource to help customers realize their digital transformation.
- Victory for Employee Rights and the Industry — In a major win for employee rights and the life sciences industry, a federal court dismissed the baseless trade secret lawsuit Medidata filed against Veeva in 2017, blocking Medidata’s attempt to stifle innovation and free flow of talent. Finding that Medidata was unable to substantiate its claims against Veeva, the judge ended the proceedings and rejected the suit midway through the jury trial. Veeva has been a long-standing supporter of employee rights and the movement to ban the use of non-compete agreements. Medidata’s abusive lawsuit further underscores the need for greater protection of worker rights to freely change employers, which promotes fair competition and economic growth.
