Head of Onomi Congress Solutions

Mission – Why we exist, what we do, and why we need you SpotMe/Onomi exists to make pharma and event engagement work better. We give life sciences teams one solution to run their in-person and virtual engagements while capturing every interaction in their CRM. By making events easier to manage and measure, we help pharma create better experiences for healthcare professionals, at a lower cost. Our solution turns complex congress engagements, webinars, standalone meetings, advisory boards and field-led meetings into meaningful connections that drive results for commercial and medical teams. Events are one of the richest channels for HCP omnichannel engagement and yet, one of the most neglected in life sciences. Across the board, investments in medical congresses and conferences are increasing, with 6- to 8-figure spending on a single congress becoming the norm. Agencies, consulting firms and tech companies are rushing to benefit from this investment wave with a primary focus on hospitality, exhibit experience, and business meetings. We believe this focus is short-sighted and our thesis is that pharma companies need to radically pivot their congress strategy and create their own complete digital layer to deploy at congresses of all sizes, to deliver an HCP 360 event platform, omnichannel engagement, event management and engagement, MLR tools and real-time data management & reporting.
