It’s hard to believe that it’s already been a year since LocumTenens.com acquired Inlightened.  Today, our global network has more than 500,000 healthcare professionals with expertise across 100+ specialties, and is the only healthcare-focused, tech-enabled insights platform of its kind.

Since our founding, we have received frequent feedback acknowledging our differentiators. Here is some of what we’ve heard:

• Our valued consultative approach by our team of healthcare and market research veterans
• Our delivery of transformative insights from qualified, vetted, invite/referral-only experts
• Our ability to source fresh faces across segments accustomed to stale panel samples lacking diversity

Read on to learn more about how Inlightened has evolved since this time last year.

Remarkable growth

Our revenue has surged by an impressive 590% in the first six months of this year compared to the same period before the acquisition. This financial success is complemented by significant expansion in our workforce; our headcount has more than tripled in the past year. This increase in personnel has not only enhanced our operational capabilities but also allowed us to better serve our clients’ diverse needs.

Diversification & expansion

Post-acquisition, we have achieved substantial growth in our expert network, now encompassing a global pool of more than 500,000 professionals. This expansive network continues to grow daily and has enabled us to cover more than 100 healthcare specialties. This diversification and expansion have significantly enhanced our ability to provide specialized expertise across a broad spectrum of healthcare domains, thereby strengthening our service offerings.

Record-breaking milestones

The most significant milestone we have reached post-acquisition is breaking multiple revenue records, as stated above. These achievements underscore the financial viability and growing market acceptance of our services, reflecting our strategic growth and operational excellence.

People first

I take immense pride in the exceptional team and culture we have built at Inlightened. We have attracted some of the most talented and brightest professionals in the industry. Our team members are not only experts in their fields but also embody the values of kindness, integrity, and teamwork. This cohesive and supportive work environment has been instrumental in driving our success and fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation.

What it means: For employees & customers alike

For our employees, the acquisition has translated into substantial growth, enhanced benefits, and increased opportunities for professional development. It has also allowed them to experience and contribute to the outstanding culture at LocumTenens.com and the Jackson Healthcare® family of companies, recognized by Fortune Media and Great Place To Work for exceptional workplace culture. For our customers, the acquisition has provided access to a larger and more experienced team at Inlightened, a vastly expanded panel of expertise, and significant technological advancements that have improved our efficiency and service delivery.

Mission moving forward

Over the past year, the acquisition and the expansion of our team have afforded us the opportunity to engage with more clients on larger and more complex projects. This has deepened our market insights and reinforced our understanding of client needs. We have discovered a strong demand for innovation and change within the industry, and the importance of diversity has become increasingly evident. These realizations have further solidified our vision and mission, confirming our commitment to driving positive change and fostering inclusivity in the healthcare market research sector.
