Getting to know iKnow

Inxight Software reports it has established a strategic business relationship with iKnow LLC to jointly develop and market advanced informatics solutions.

The companies will initially focus on three industry sectors: pharma, legal and government, which are, by their very nature, information-intensive. The pharmaceutical industry generates huge volumes of information that must be created, reviewed and analyzed during the long and complex process of moving promising new therapies through drug discovery and drug development research. Research scientists and their teams need access to a wide variety of scientific data, previous clinical trials and investigational studies, patents and published articles.

The legal sector is struggling to manage the huge volumes of information required for discovery and litigation, the companies say. Advanced informatics solutions will enable the litigator to control and manage much larger volumes of case materials and much more complex information.

Intelligence activities within federal and state governments require the analysis and synthesis of huge volumes of information now contained in disparate files and databases.
