Tiberend Strategic Advisors contends that for communications to be truly effective each initiative must support – and strengthen – each component of the overall program. This is the essence of strategic communications and what we deliver in the communications plans that we develop for our clients.

It is not enough to arrange a non-deal roadshow if the milestones that investors will be weighing are not clearly articulated. Similarly, a media placement touting the benefits of a new technology cannot benefit the bottom line if it is not linked to the company’s business development and marketing effort.

Tiberend embraces the connection between corporate, investor, industry and product communications – as well as the power of digital communications – to deliver fully realized programs that address our clients’ immediate needs and future potential.

Corporate Communications:

In today’s hyper competitive business environment, where an increasing number of companies are vying for a shrinking pool of investors and partners, how a company presents itself can be paramount to success.

As corporate communications counsel, Tiberend takes a leadership role in all outbound news/message dissemination for the companies we represent. Our role is both as a strategic advisor and a tactical manager, ensuring that all communications activities from our clients are compelling, accurate, consistent, and designed to elicit maximum impact.

In creating a strategic program, Tiberend favors an approach that defines the overall mission and then segments our work into agreed-upon initiatives/projects with specific objectives and deliverables. Structuring the program in this fashion allows all parties to judge the effectiveness of the program on near-term and longer-range bases.

Clinical Trial Recruitment:

Clinical trials play a central role in scientific advancement and drug approval. However, patient enrollment and retention is a hurdle that encumbers many companies, potentially depleting R&D resources and delaying the marketing of novel therapeutics or devices.

Tiberend designs programs to drive patient enrollment and retention and strengthen relationships with investigators, patient advocacy organizations, and medical research institutions. Our experience in a variety of therapeutic areas enables us to create tailored recruitment initiatives and media campaigns that target key audiences, while adhering to strict regulatory guidelines and IRB requirements.
