Top 10 Benefits of Virtual Advisory Boards

As the world is slowly starting to open up again, it can be tempting to rush back to the pre-pandemic days of in-person advisory boards. However, it would be foolish to ignore the many pain points associated with traditional key opinion leader (KOL) engagement. In-person advisory boards require finding a time and place that will work with all advisors’ busy schedules. They also force both Pharma representatives and advisors to travel and take time away from their families and/or work. Not to mention the high cost and environmental impact associated with renting a venue, organizing transportation, food, etc. One can also debate just how effective these “one-off” type meetings really are in terms of gathering insights and fostering authentic relationships. How can you create ongoing engagement with someone you only see once a year?A silver lining of the COVID-19 pandemic is the digital transformation of Pharma. Organizations are finally starting to realize that there is another, better way to conduct their meetings and programs. In this article, based on a 2019 Impetus Digital white paper, I share the top 10 benefits (+ a bonus) of virtual advisory boards and why they should be part of every brand’s toolbox in the post-COVID new normal. Read the full blog article here.
