International Clinical Evidence Professional Society, the global leader in the development of innovative approaches to evidence harmonization for medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics.
For many professionals involved in medical device clinical research, the word "estimand" can sound intimidating. It is often thought to be associated with complex statistical concepts and advanced methodology. However, the reality is much simpler—and far more practical.
In fact, most professionals involved in the design of clinical investigations are already thinking in terms of estimands. They simply may not be using this terminology.

The official launch webinar of the International Clinical Evidence Professionals Society (ICEPS) brought together professionals from across the medical device, IVD, regulatory, reimbursement, and clinical research sectors to introduce a new global community dedicated to clinical evidence.
ICEPS was created with a clear mission: to connect professionals involved in the generation of clinical evidence, while fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and professional development across the healthcare ecosystem.
During the session, members of the Board of Directors presented the vision behind the association and highlighted the importance of creating an international platform where industry professionals, regulators, academics, healthcare providers, and patient representatives can exchange ideas and address common challenges.
Several upcoming initiatives were announced, including:
Discussions on emerging topics such as AI, in silico evidence, reimbursement, and global regulatory developments;
The development of expert articles, working groups, and community-driven discussions.
A major highlight of the launch was the announcement of the first ICEPS Conference, which will take place in Brussels from 4–5 November in a hybrid format, allowing participation from professionals around the world.
Throughout the webinar, one message remained central: ICEPS is a community built by and for its members. The association encourages professionals to contribute ideas, share expertise, participate in discussions, and help shape the future of clinical evidence.
If you are passionate about advancing clinical evidence, expanding your professional network, and contributing to meaningful discussions that impact the future of healthcare innovation, we invite you to become an ICEPS member. Join a growing international community of experts and help us build the platform that our profession needs.
