Impactful medical breakthroughs for everyone, with everyone.
Leapcure is a global team of thought leaders who elevate patient interactions to progress research for all. We do this with a purposeful, brave culture that deeply connects to each of our personal values.
Through innovative technology and empathetic conversations, our impact is limitless.

Since Leap Day 2016, we've partnered with over 12,000 Patient Advocacy Groups across 42 different countries... and counting.
Leapcure goes above and beyond by also interviewing each clinical trial site to provide specific assistance to each location. Our goal is not only to provide the most qualified and highly engaged patients, but also to assist the site with their individual needs.
Zach and the founding team saw firsthand what came from advocacy engagement in clinical trials after working in the clinical research technology space for a few years. Advocacy groups were often underutilized for understanding the patient voice, and when connected with research, it was like magic - their feedback helped clarify how research can better meet patients' needs, and when their participation is correctly engaged, it accelerates research outcomes.
So we built Leapcure to empower advocacy groups with technology that can maximize their impact on research. We uncovered more from this, how there are important problems to solve across the way we plan and execute research from a behavioral perspective. We've come to realize how we can improve patient outcomes when we listen to study teams, physicians, and sponsors too - and we can help our stakeholders across the industry when we can align on innovations that matter most to patients.

In our eyes, we believe actions speak louder than words. And for that reason, we're just as much against performative activism as we are against ignoring injustices in research.
We're committed to identifying issues related to inclusivity. As a team, we save space for honest discussions and do the work needed to identify any blind spots.
