The challenge of reaching specialized healthcare professionals in Germany

Senior-level healthcare professionals are notoriously difficult to capture insights from. But to understand the rapidly changing healthcare market in Germany, a leading market for technology-enabled innovation, McKinsey needed a B2B research partner that could do just that. They wanted a healthcare market research partner with the unique capability to reach dozens of specialized senior healthcare professionals and collect fraud-free data. Furthermore, they looked for a partner that could advise on and help build a framework for continual iteration of the survey with quarterly waves.

McKinsey leveraged the insights to lead the next generation of healthcare innovation

 

McKinsey published the research findings from this one-of-a-kind survey in “Creating room for innovation,” a healthcare innovation report distributed to their clients. It synthesized actionable opportunities from the data:

  1. Invest financial resources more heavily in innovation opportunities.
