SJV has a guiding philosophy when it comes to our technology investments: continuous improvement, developer-friendly APIs, and scalable platforms.

We're joined today by Nick Kelland, our Chief Product and Technology Officer. In this new podcast episode, we discuss the following topics:

1. What "continuous improvement", "developer-friendly APIs", and "scalable platforms" mean to SJV?
2. How these technological pillars helped us navigate the pandemic and help CRAs make it through the last 15 months.
3. The biggest technology gaps that the industry is currently facing, and the timeline for addressing these gaps. 
4. How can CRAs and data providers continue to advance technology responsibly?

If tech is your language, this is the episode for you. 

Here's a bonus - this podcast has a twist - watch our Podcast Video here.
