The MedComms marketplace – ripe for investment?

This podcast is a recording of a live #MedComms webinar.

The past few years have seen the MedComms business boom and interest from investors soar. In November 2021, James West, Director, Pharma Services M&A at Lincoln International published an Opinion article in PR Week arguing that 2021 will be known as the year MedComms M&A Went Into Overdrive. In this webinar, James reflects on the reasons behind that interest and provides insight into the challenges posed, for acquirers and acquirees. But how is the MedComms business being defined and how will it evolve over coming years? Does it warrant the investment interest? Charlie Buckwell (Chief Medical Communications Officer, IPG Health) and Gail Flockhart (Group President at Fishawack Health) join James to discuss the state of the market. And we answer questions from the audience.

It should be of interest to anyone who is working in and around MedComms, or who is wanting to join the business.

Recorded 02 March 2022 as a MedComms Networking webinar. Produced by NetworkPharma.tv
