Challenging the Reduction of Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Marketing Costs to Achieve Universal Health Coverage

InsighTCROSS

Decision-making support service that drives effective marketing while eliminating inefficiencies

Concept

InsighTCROSS® is a decision-support service developed to assist pharmaceutical and medical device companies in optimizing their sales and marketing activities. In recent years, marketing expenditures in the pharmaceutical industry have surpassed research and development (R&D) costs and continue to rise annually. Notably, approximately 30% of these marketing efforts are considered inefficient.

By leveraging data science, InsighTCROSS® visualizes physicians' subconscious behaviors, enabling the formulation of optimal marketing strategies. This approach transcends traditional methods reliant on intuition, facilitating evidence-based decision-making. Moreover, InsighTCROSS® evaluates marketing activities from the physicians' perspective, clearly distinguishing between effective and ineffective initiatives.

Through these efforts, InsighTCROSS® aims to reduce marketing costs, thereby contributing to the achievement of the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 3: "Good Health and Well-Being for All."
