Why Comvia?
We know life sciences. Our principals have decades of experience in medical, marketing, and regulatory communications for the healthcare industry. We also have specific experience helping drug development teams create compelling messages and present them with clarity and confidence during high-stakes presentations and Q&A sessions like FDA Advisory Committee meetings and EMA Oral Explanations.
We have also helped founders and CEOs of early- and mid-stage life sciences companies pitch their businesses to investors and strategic partners with confidence and brilliance. And, we are skilled advisors and coaches to healthcare teams with communication problems that impact internal dynamics and corporate culture.
Finally, we’re developing a resource dedicated to life sciences leaders called the Life Sciences Leadership Forum. It’s a space for discussion, exchange of ideas, and professional growth. Visit www.LifeSciencesLeadership.com to learn more.
