How much are inconsistent interactions costing you?

Many commercial and medical affairs leaders struggle to interact with experts, manage speakers and events, implement educational programs and handle their reporting needs. They don’t have a thoughtful KOL and HCP engagement strategy, much less a technology platform to manage and execute that strategy from one place.
 
Failing to bring experts together to share their insights can put your mission in jeopardy—whether it’s advancing clinical research or bringing your products to market.

 

Simplify and strengthen your expert engagement and medical education workflow with ExtendMed.

ExtendMed helps you connect, educate and train global healthcare thought leaders, facilitate rich discussions and save hours of administrative and logistical work on a simple, powerful expert engagement platform.
 
We don’t just build technology solutions—ExtendMed has years of experience working with industry partners to provide you with recommendations that lower costs and improve efficiencies across your workflow.

ExtendMed gave me wonderful support in running this program, once again. It is so helpful to have a reliable technology partner for our virtual peer-to-peer programs (aka speaker programs with bureau). They reached out before the program to ask whether I had questions, during the program to make sure everything was running smoothly and after the program to make it easy for me to close out attendance and expenses, online.

A pharmaceutical company needed timely and frequent feedback from a panel of KOLs around the creation of a patient database to collect real-world data post-product launch.

ExtendMed saved them more than 200 hours by shifting away from traditional meetings. Our platform cut the cost of soliciting the perspectives of these thought leaders by two-thirds.

A top 20 multinational pharmaceutical company needed to reduce costs and increase communication effectiveness across active trial sites, from trial start to completion, in line with protocol requirements.

ExtendMed achieved over 80% site participation in these virtual meetings, shrunk participant commitment from days to 60 minutes and the planning process from six months to two. Cost savings were reported at 66% versus a traditional face-to-face event. Internal staff reduced planning time by half and evaluations remained as strong as in-person events.

A mid-size pharmaceutical company lacked marketing focus and wanted to use a group of KOLs to assess their marketing strategy.

Using ExtendMed to streamline market testing between external experts and the commercial team, the company began monthly outreach to build stronger specialist relationships, differentiated its position in a competitive market, and enabled clinical experts to provide feedback at their convenience—better noting the actions taken from their input.
