WorldOne’s Healthcare Panel Exceeds 500,000

Online research leader achieves milestone, offering largest, most geographically diverse panel.

NEW YORK, NY (August 5, 2010) – WorldOne, the global leader in online healthcare research and data collection, announced today its panel now exceeds 500,000 phone-verified medical professionals. WorldOne boasts the largest and most diverse panel in the industry with coverage in over 30 countries.

“Surpassing 500,000 panelists speaks not only to our current volume of work, but our commitment to meeting future demand for larger sample sizes, shorter timelines and greater global reach,” said Peter Kirk, Chief Executive Officer of WorldOne. “It’s certainly a significant feat to reach this milestone considering the high quality recruitment process we employ. We take no short-cuts in verifying our panelists.”

WorldOne panelists are individually phone-verified at their place of practice. The panel consists of frequently targeted medical professions including physicians, nurses, pharmacists, dentists and optometrists, among others. “Five years ago it was a question of should researchers go online or not for global data collection. Today they want the world online,” Kirk explained. “We are finding strong acceptance from the global medical community to be a part of the online research phenomena.”

WorldOne’s panel growth is broad-based with an increasing focus on emerging markets in Latin America and Asia as well as highly specialized markets such as Japan.
