ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this BioBeacon edition of the Cognitio Podcast, ARCS CEO Tim Boyle speaks with Paul Batten, founder of ObjectivoData, about his unexpected journey from mechanical engineering and McLaren to clinical trial technology.
Paul shares how working on a COVID-era telehealth trial exposed the need for more intuitive, flexible and user-centred clinical trial systems. That experience became the foundation for ObjectivoData, a platform supporting clinical trial management, electronic data capture and customised workflow solutions.
The conversation explores the role of better data systems in reducing friction across clinical trials, the importance of designing technology around real users, and the opportunities for entrepreneurs building capability beyond drugs, devices and diagnostics.
Paul also reflects on what it takes to build a company from the ground up, why relationships matter, and why conferences and sector networks can be game-changing for emerging companies.
This episode is part of ARCS Australia’s BioBeacon series, highlighting innovators, founders and emerging companies shaping the future of Australia’s life sciences sector.
