PRINCETON, N.J. and NEW YORK and BENGALURU, India, Oct. 19, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Indegene, a digital-first, life sciences commercialization company, announced the acquisition of CultHealth, a full-service, healthcare marketing agency for many life sciences brands. The acquisition by ILSL Inc., a subsidiary of Indegene Private Limited, augments Indegene’s commercialization portfolio spanning drug discovery and development to marketing and sales, adding brand strategy and market development capabilities along with patient engagement platforms.
CultHealth is a U.S.-based, full-service, healthcare marketing agency with significant experience in medical strategy, creative and omnichannel planning services. It has a track record of delivering best-in-class creative for Direct To Consumer (DTC) campaigns, including numerous award-winning campaigns on digital TV/ video. CultHealth engages with life sciences companies at a medical/ academic level, bringing deep insight into drug Mechanism of Action (MOA) and customer behavior to derive insights for superior brand campaigns and creatives.
The global spend on medicine is projected to reach $2.1 trillion by 20251). Life sciences companies in the top 10 countries are expected to launch 290-315 products from 2022 through 2026, accounting for $196 billion in forecasted sales2). However, only 1 in 5 products launched in the U.S. reached a revenue of $1 billion from 2004 to 2016 and 50% of all products launched over the past 15 years failed to reach peak U.S. sales of $250 million3). In an increasingly complex business and regulatory environment, life sciences companies seek deep brand and marketing strategy expertise as they explore modern, data-driven ways of ensuring launch success and building a personalized brand experience with omnichannel engagement journeys for patients and physicians.
“With CultHealth, our life sciences clients benefit from partnering with a single service provider, all the way from brand strategy through commercialization. The CultHealth team brings nuanced expertise in reaching patients and physicians with meaningful DTC and marketing efforts, with a special emphasis on therapeutic areas of diabetes and oncology. Their long-standing relationships with some of the large, global life sciences companies and a record of growing business speaks volumes about the unique talent and culture nurtured at CultHealth,” said Manish Gupta, Executive Director and CEO, Indegene Private Limited. “We welcome the CultHealth team to the Indegene family and are excited for our journey together.”
“We are thrilled to join the Indegene family. Indegene’s life sciences relationships, global scale and complementary portfolio offer exciting opportunities for us to grow together. Its team’s medical expertise, life sciences-contextualized technology and agile culture make Indegene a natural home for our team,” said Jeff Rothstein, Partner and CEO, CultHealth. “We believe that together we can build outstanding brand experiences, improve the effectiveness and efficiency of life sciences commercialization, and enable future ready healthcare.”
