- Ease and Effectiveness of Knowledge Sharing; the top 10 benefits of virtual advisory boards
- Here's another great tip on why the benefits of virtual advisory boards are superior to in-person and hybrid advisory boards.
#8. The Ease and Effectiveness of Sharing Knowledge and Data
Advisors appreciate having clinical data and information for context-setting and reference at the beginning of each online activity. Having the ability to take their time going over these resources ensures a much more thorough understanding of the data.
The advisors themselves can also easily share data, knowledge, and patient cases. Further, they can back up their statements by attaching files and links to journal articles or guidelines.

- Let everyone have a say; the top 10 benefits of virtual advisory boards
- Here's another great tip on why the benefits of virtual advisory boards are superior to in-person and hybrid advisory boards.
#7. Everyone Gets a Say
Another top benefit for the advisors is the fact that everyone’s input is equally valued. In face-to-face meetings, there are often two or three advisors who are louder, more opinionated, or more extroverted. Inadvertently, these individuals may take over the conversation. In addition, most medical professionals are so-called “analyticals” who require time to process new information. Hence, presenting brand-new data during an in-person meeting can often result in knee-jerk reactions. As a result, in-person meetings may not always result in the most comprehensive inclusion of everyone’s opinions on specific issues.
On the other hand, in asynchronous advisory boards, everyone gets an equal say. The extroversion or introversion of an advisor no longer makes a difference, with everyone’s comments and insights valued the same. At the end of the day, everyone benefits from leveling the playing field in this way. This includes the Pharma team, which is now receiving input they otherwise might never have gotten.

- Capture Tribal Knowledge, Top 10 benefits of virtual advisory boards
- We're breaking down the benefits of virtual advisory boards, and how they are superior when compared to in-person and hybrid advisory boards.
#6. Far Superior Convenience
Most KOLs have extremely busy work and personal schedules. Even finding a time for a one- or two-hour webinar that works with all advisors’ schedules can be challenging. Accordingly, having the ability to log in and interact with other advisors from anywhere at any time on any device is one of the most important advantages of online advisory boards.
The asynchronous nature of the online touchpoints allows Pharma teams to engage with KOLs in larger geographical areas. There is no longer a need to worry about time zones or language barriers. Non-native English speakers are able to take their time when formulating their responses. They can also leverage automatic language translation features to write and read others’ comments in their preferred language.

- Capture Tribal Knowledge in Advisory Boards
- We're breaking down the benefits of virtual advisory boards, and how they are superior when compared to in-person and hybrid advisory boards.
#5. The Ability to Capture “Tribal Knowledge” and Immediately Build or Act on Insights Collected
The ability to promptly follow up on insights from a previous touchpoint and design future touchpoints based on those insights is unique to online advisory boards. This requires flexibility from all parties as it may result in completely new topics being explored. This is not a bad thing as it shows that you value your KOLs’ input and take their advice seriously.
Further, the ability to capture tribal knowledge is another huge advantage. This is difficult in in-person or real-time web meetings, as there is often just not enough time to dig deeper and since, by definition, the advisors may assume that it is common knowledge already.

- Create Long-lasting KOL Relationships, benefits of virtual advisory boards
- Here's another top reason why virtual advisory boards are simply better than in-person and hybrid advisory boards.
#4. More Frequent Interactions and Long-lasting KOL Relationships
Another important benefit of online advisory boards is that they allow much more frequent interactions for the same cost as a yearly in-person meeting. By conducting an advisory board touchpoint every couple of months instead of annually, you ensure ongoing interactions and continuously evolving relationships with your KOLs. In turn, you receive a steady stream of high-quality insights over time and build authentic partnerships with these key stakeholders in the process. With closer relationships come trust, honesty, and openness–things that every brand team should strive for in their KOL relationships.
More frequent touchpoint activities are especially useful when dealing with the quickly changing competitive landscape or newly published data. Issues do not normally arise overnight nor are they solved overnight. Ongoing touchpoints allow for rumination of data and timely problem-solving, and the collection of insights occurs in more easily digestible segments. Consequently, this builds a logical story flow that results in better long-term cognition and higher behavioral impact.
