Mark S. Hanley, Chief Executive Officer of Clinical Research Advantage, Inc. (CRA), was the recipient of a Gold Stevie® Award in this year’s American Business Awards. Hanley was recognized as the “Maverick of the Year” in the Business Services category.
Hanley was honored for his innovative vision and leadership, which included acquiring Radiant Research in 2012 to create the country’s largest and most therapeutically diverse integrated network of clinical trial sites. “It is an honor to receive this award,” said Hanley. “But, this is really an award for the entire CRA team. It is through all of their hard work and dedication that we have accomplished so much in the past 12 months.”
