Helping to shape the future through science, strategy, and creativity
With the dramatic increase in innovative medical products coming out of laboratories around the world, we have committed to building a science-based commercialization agency that shepherds these products to market with a unique combination of insight and strategy, creative, content, omnichannel digital, PR, and media. This is our story.
Our story
CG Life’s heritage—its endowment—is science. We always come home to the discipline and rigor of understanding and translating science into brand experiences to help the innovators realize the promise of their product or therapy.
From the research tools and services that support biomedical innovation to the therapeutic products winding their way through clinical development to the brand teams planning for launch, CG Life is there. Our staff PhDs dive deep into the science so we can help shape a story that engages and inspires.
We connect that story to your audience through an integrated strategy of medical communications, omnichannel marketing, public relations, and media to create the conditions for a successful launch and growth.
We have invested in building an agency grounded in science, strategy, creative, content, and technology focused on bringing life-giving innovation to market.
We serve the inventors and the visionaries, but are driven by the needs of patients, their caregivers, and the healthcare professionals who care for them. We are committed to excellence and are relentless in pursuit of our mission to advance the promise of improving lives.
We are CG Life, and this is our why.
How has science shaped you?
