We specialize in enabling non-profit patient associations and pharma companies around the world to make a bigger impact through strategic partnerships. We design related alliance strategies, frameworks and initiatives. 

We spark first-in-class and best-in-class innovation partnerships and outcomes for patients. We connect the right people at the right time. We apply data and evidence-based methodologies to uncover untapped potentials and generate new knowledge. 

We think and act beyond ‘unmet medical needs’ in our mission to play our part in paving way for solutions that resolve unmet patient needs. 

We pay it forward. Our commitment goes beyond our business. We offer free support to individuals looking to establish non-profit patient or family networks in underrepresented disease areas. We’re here to empower the voices that need to be heard the most.

HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT

the partnering paradigm

Our laser-focus is on the white space and opportunities that exist in the intersection between unmet medical needs and unmet patient needs.

We are experts in the uncovery of related data and evidence, and in translating this into support of innovation, development and delivery of first-in-class and best-in-class solutions for patients.   

 We have 20+ years experience in driving change as former employees of pharma and/or patient organizations. We also have extensive experience in start-ups.                    

We are visionary doers. We are second-to-none partners.

The value of STRATEGIC PATIENT ENGAGEMENT

  • Optimizing performance across value chain and ultimately end-user products (ref 1,6)
  • Positive effect (e.g. financial effect) on clinical trial recruitment and retention (ref 2,3,4)
  • Opportunity for researchers to learn from patients as disease experience experts (ref 6)
  • Challenge the set way of thinking – often leading to improved research design, delivery, and dissemination (ref 6)
  • Wider impacts of a changed innovation, research culture and agenda (ref 5)
