In this episode, Aigerim Mullen, Marketing Manager at Abbott, shares how her experience across clinical, academic, and commercial environments shapes her approach to healthcare and medical device marketing. We explore what strong marketing leadership looks like in a sector where patient outcomes, regulation, and innovation all intersect.
Aigerim breaks down how to keep marketing genuinely patient-centred while still supporting commercial growth, and how to balance scientific credibility with clear, accessible communication that works for both clinicians and wider audiences.
The conversation also looks ahead at the future of healthcare marketing, covering emerging challenges and opportunities for leaders navigating rapid technological and regulatory change.
Plus, we’re also speaking to Elena Nikiforova, Social Media Manager at Giraffe Social, to get her thoughts on using social listening to uncover sentiment, trends, and unmet needs… and how marketers can use these insights to build more empathetic, proactive brand strategies.
