The firm partners with clients across the entire spectrum of the healthcare industry, creating omnichannel campaigns centered on value-added content that connect healthcare professionals and patients with the knowledge they need to live better lives.
It has a strong presence in pharmaceuticals, health insurance, and care delivery, as well as the medical device and health technology space, bringing an exciting range of innovative clients to the growing client base at Fishawack Health, which already includes all top 20 pharmaceutical companies and a host of pioneering biotechnology organizations.
Fishawack Health Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Oliver Dennis, elaborated, “Our healthcare clients are looking for a new breed of partner with skills in scientific, strategic, and creative innovation and the agility needed to develop, launch, and grow brands in a complex and crowded marketplace. StoneArch brings strategic, creative, and storytelling skills, while their office in Minneapolis—an important healthcare center of excellence—is an exciting addition to our US footprint. We’re delighted to add StoneArch to the group, which follows the recent addition of The Hive Health Group, also experts in patient engagement and scientific storytelling.”
