Communiqué Small Consultancy of the Year

Summary of work

One of the most uncertain elections on record and an increasingly tight financial environment for the NHS meant that 2015 was a challenging year for health policy communications. Incisive Health overcame this uncertainty to grow by over a quarter, breaking through the £3m barrier.

This success was achieved through superb delivery for clients, achieving big wins on their behalf; clever marketing, demonstrating both specialist expertise and versatility in delivering communications programmes; and making big investments in the team.

The result is a growing business that attracts strong support from clients and key decision-makers. When it comes to health policy, Incisive Health is a genuinely respected voice. The Incisive Health team proves that effective communications is about substance as well as style. The results delivered show the difference that a case well made and compellingly communicated can make to the businesses of their clients and the lives of the patients they serve.
