Real-world insight to test strategy, clarify evidence needs and reveal real clinical decision-making.

An advisory board is a structured, non-promotional, in-person or virtual meeting with key stakeholders, designed to inform internal decision-making and strategic direction.

We work with you to define the challenges, shape the agenda, recruit the most relevant experts and create the conditions for open, exploratory discussion – so insight goes beyond validation and leads to clear next steps.

Designed and delivered in line with ABPI requirements, our advisory boards are independently facilitated and typically completed within 6–8 weeks (subject to expert availability).

Following the meeting, you receive a structured, objective report capturing:

  • Key themes and tensions
  • Areas of consensus uncertainty
  • Practical recommendations to inform strategy, access, engagement or evidence planning

Driving brand success

Whether you’re shaping early, preparing for launch or optimising an in-market brand, our advisory boards are designed to reduce uncertainty, strengthen confidence and support strategic decisions.

The challenge

A pharma client planned to introduce a European product into the UK market. While the product had a solid reputation in France and other European markets, the UK presented distinct challenges, including equity and access barriers, limited awareness among clinicians, and uncertainty around evidence from UK decision-makers.

The solution

We convened a UK advisory board of well-positioned KOLs to gather targeted, real-world insight. Discussion focused on clinical evidence expectations, patient selection, positioning considerations, evidence-generation priorities, and access and equity factors influencing adoption.

The resulting insight report set out a clear evidence roadmap, market access considerations and engagement priorities – strengthening the client’s understanding of the UK landscape and providing confidence to shape next-stage launch and access planning.
