Scientific discoveries won’t change the world if no one knows about them, and innovative treatments are worthless if patients can’t access them.
To that end, marketing and commercialization experts across the life sciences work day-in and day-out to get the message out — whether by conveying the patient's need for a new drug to payers and physicians, or by developing direct-to-consumer advertising materials that meet patients where they are in their care journey.
These leaders translate the hard-fought science into comprehensible products that regulators and physicians alike can see the value in. They push the envelope of what it means to be patient-focused, forging partnerships with industry and nonprofit stakeholders to expand access to life saving medications.
At their core, these are the storytellers framing the narrative of the life sciences industry for patients around the world.
These are the 2023 PharmaVoice 100 brand and commercialization pros.
