The driving force behind NMBLR
Strategic decision making is effectively and efficiently accelerated with NMBLR
“From my own personal experience as a young girl, I’m acutely aware of the impact on patients and families when there’s poor access to life changing therapies. When I was 8, my mother died of a sepsis infection following a hysterectomy. Knowing she would likely have survived if appropriate medication had been available has been a great motivator in a career spent supporting bringing breakthrough medicines to patients.”
Janice MacLennan, Founder
Intimate knowledge of strategy development across global pharma and life sciences led to the inception of NMBLR.
“Close working with many client partners and cross-functional teams has demonstrated the repeating challenge of devising and executing a consistent strategy across multiple stakeholders – and often multiple markets. Defining a clear route to commercial success is why NMBLR exists and it can help build confidence into your organisation’s pivotal processes.
