AcademicLabs vs GlobalData
GlobalData provides unique data, expert analysis & innovative solutions to companies in a variety of industries. For Healthcare, it is known for its later-stage focus with Drug Pipeline and Market Intelligence solutions.
AcademicLabs instead focuses on early-stage research intelligence, finding KOLs, rising star experts and early-stage companies. Company profiles are centered around their science rather than financials and assets.
Both solutions are often used in a complementary way. Whereas some rather need a late-stage oriented solution like GlobalData, and others an early-stage focused solution like AcademicLabs.
In the table below, we compare it to AcademicLabs for multiple use cases.
