Summary of work

Virgo HEALTH Education made a massive impact in 2011, building on the success of the first year in 2010. The agency set out to meet the challenge of creative scientific engagement through digital solutions while maintaining our scientific foundation and quality outputs.

Virgo HEALTH Education exceeded its fee target to deliver more than £2.2m fee and doubled the size of the team. It won 4/5 pitches, against established medical education agencies, with a 100 per cent client retention rate. Key to this success was our team - with the appointment of nine new members of staff, including boosting the editorial team. The success seen in 2011 is testimony to Virgo HEALTH Education’s unique offering, allowing it to lead the way for the future of medical education.
