The annual program rewards companies, products, and people that are leading their respective industries.
Healthcare market research plays a pivotal and largely uncredited role in the development of new treatments. For over 15 years SHG has been the global market leader in primary healthcare data collection and digital interview solutions, helping organizations to access the insights of over two million healthcare professionals (HCPs) and conduct research among 150 different therapeutic categories, through operations in 14 countries. Life science firms need the insights of SHG’s physicians, nurse practitioners, managed care executives, and other stakeholders whose feedback informs multiple aspects of new treatment development. Sourcing their high-quality insights quickly and efficiently, worldwide, expedites the path to healthcare innovation.
For the past seven years at SHG, Matt Walmsley has helped to grow SHG and make its global business unit one of the highest performing sectors of the company, growing revenue over plan thus far in 2021—a revenue plan that already set a high bar. He directed the company’s expansion into China this year, which has helped expand SHG’s business as well. Members of SHG’s healthcare panels often contact Matt personally with feedback about how they can more effectively share their opinions and insights faster, smarter, and better—and Matt responds personally to every one of them.
“Matt personifies the values we live by at Apollo—devotion to our healthcare prescriber base and communities and above-and-beyond commitment to our clients as they navigate profound change in healthcare delivery,” said Daniel S. Fitzgerald, CEO of Apollo Intelligence. “We are delighted at this industry recognition for SHG, Matt, and the broader Apollo team as they seek to transform and streamline the path to high-quality healthcare insights and thus help the scientists and researchers who are building a new tomorrow.”
