HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Proxima Clinical Research (“Proxima CRO”) is pleased to announce it has received two Gold Awards and an Honorable Mention by MarCom Awards during the 2021 International Creative Competition for marketing and communications professionals.

Proxima CRO is a contract research organization (CRO) based out of the Texas Medical Center in Houston, the largest medical center in the world. Its recently hired in-house team of marketing experts, including Creative Director Devin Finch, together with its marketing agency of choice, Aleberry Creative, redesigned the Proxima CRO consumer facing website with its new superhero theme.

“We are excited to see that the expert judges saw what we saw, a unique and clever way to tell our clients’ and our stories in an exciting and memorable manner,” says Kevin Coker, co-founder and CEO at Proxima CRO. “We designed our new superheroes, Proxi and Mini Proxi, to elevate our brand strategy in recognition of our clients and our expert teams here at Proxima. Our clients are inventors saving lives and elevating the quality of life with medical inventions for people around the world; we help them succeed in bringing this brilliance to market. Superheroes are, in our opinion, the most appropriate branding.”

As inventors of medical devices, technology, and pharmaceuticals that save lives and improve the quality of life for people around the world, Proxima CRO clients really are the superheroes of the world, and the Proxima regulatory and clinical teams are their superhero partners. “When superheroes come together, they first have to assemble,” says Isabella Schmitt, RAC, Director of Regulatory Affairs at Proxima CRO and head of the internal marketing team. “We employ our expertise in regulatory, clinical, and the full entrepreneurial journey to take our clients from concept to market quickly and with ease.”

Proxima CRO began hiring its internal team in March 2021 with the bulk hired over the summer. Within four months, the new team and web development agency, Aleberry Creative, designed and launched an award-winning website and social media page.
