ongoing communications, whether in person or through digital channels.

“New channels of communication are empowering life sciences companies to more
effectively engage customers and key stakeholders,” said Eric Newmark, program director at
IDC Health Insights. “Advanced cloud technology, integrated commercial platforms, and
higher customer quality data are enabling more orchestrated multichannel customer
communication that will usher in a new wave of transformation separating the leaders from
the laggards.”
