PRWeek's and MM&M's Health Influencer 50
From resuscitating the healthcare industry's battered reputation to focusing on patient stories with brand marketing, PRWeek and MM&M editors convened to select 50 battle-tested pros who are changing the game.
Overview
As well as the Health Influencer 50 list, features will also explore the improved pipelines of pharma's R&D departments looking at hot areas including immuno-oncology and Hepatitis C. And industry thought leaders will discuss how technology plays an ever-growing role in delivering care more effectively and how pharma, insurers, and HCPs must adapt their messaging to engage millennials.
