How konectar Helps Streamline Speaker Selection and Analyze Impact

Evaluating medical speakers is a critical component of effective HCP engagement in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry. Selecting the right speaker for a medical event isn't just about choosing a well-known name; it's about aligning expertise, relevance, and audience resonance.
With growing regulatory scrutiny and the increasing importance of demonstrating ROI for speaker programs, pharmaceutical companies need a more strategic approach to speaker selection. This is where konectar, an AI-powered HCP management platform, steps in to transform speaker analysis and engagement.

The Evolving Landscape of Medical Speaker Programs
In the U.S., medical speaker programs are an essential part of pharmaceutical marketing and education. These events serve as platforms for healthcare professionals (HCPs) to share clinical knowledge, discuss new therapies, and disseminate the latest research.
However, recent shifts in compliance requirements and physician engagement patterns have made it necessary to re-evaluate how medical speakers are selected and measured.
Gone are the days when speaker selection relied solely on reputation or sales territory needs. Today, medical speaker evaluation demands a data-driven approach that takes into account various metrics such as prior speaking experience, clinical trial involvement, audience feedback, and therapeutic alignment.
Challenges in Traditional Speaker Evaluation
Pharmaceutical companies often grapple with several issues when evaluating medical speakers:
⁕ Lack of centralized data: Speaker profiles are often stored in silos across medical affairs, marketing, and sales teams.
⁕ Manual selection processes: Without automated tools, speaker selection becomes time-consuming and prone to bias.
⁕ Limited visibility into speaker impact: Companies struggle to measure how effectively a speaker engages audiences or drives key messages.
These limitations not only reduce the efficiency of speaker programs but also pose risks in terms of compliance and ROI.
