Real World Evidence at Scale: The Data Foundation FDA Is Now Demanding
In March 2026 the FDA adopted ICH M14, completing real-world evidence's transition into a first-class regulatory pathway. Roughly a quarter of FDA label expansions in 2022-2024 were supported by RWE, with oncology driving nearly half of those approvals. The shift has exposed a structural problem: the data foundation underneath RWE — patient master, drug master, provider master, and cross-source identity resolution — is not ready for the standard the agency is now applying. This piece explains why RWE at scale is a master data problem, not an analytics one, and what pharma data and regulatory leaders should do in their next ninety days.

The Hotel Industry's AI Problem Lives in the PMS
Every major hotel chain has now committed publicly to an agentic AI roadmap — Marriott's $1B+ agentic mesh, Hilton's AI Planner, Hyatt and Accor inside ChatGPT, IHG's AI-enhanced CRM. All of them are bottlenecked at the same layer: the property management system was built when a guest was a stay at a property, not a relationship across the chain. Replatforming the PMS is necessary; it is not the answer. The answer is the entity layer above it. This piece explains why — with the fragmentation map, the integration reality, and the duplicate-profile problem — and what hotel CIOs should do in their next ninety days.
