Camino Communications

 

Camino means path, and that’s the whole idea. The best work in medcomms is rarely the obvious route, so we go looking for the interesting way through, with the best people and the latest technology behind us.

That’s the route we take with all of it: making the science clear, putting AI to real use, and sharing what we learn openly, including at Adventures in Pharma, the conference we built and now run for a second year. We’re growing fast, and clients keep coming back, which is the bit we measure ourselves on.

The recognition has been welcome too. In 2024 we were PharmaTimes Digital Agency of the Year, in 2025 the most awarded agency at the PMi Awards, and we’re looking forward to what Communiqué brings in 2026!

Havas Life London

Healthcare isn’t short of information. It’s short of belief.

In a world of overload, pressure and misinformation, attention isn’t given it’s earned.

That’s why we start with real life. Not products or pipelines, but people, their realities, cultures and contexts. Because that’s where relevance is built, and where brands truly begin.

With 62% of healthcare brands underperforming at launch*, success isn’t about making more noise, it’s about creating ideas that people recognise, trust and carry into the real world.

At Havas Life London, our approach is earned-first by design. We bring together commercial expertise, communications, patient engagement and medical affairs to shape brands that build credibility early, travel through culture and continue to gain momentum beyond launch.

Grounded in medical insight. Shaped by culture. Built to earn attention and keep it.

From rare to global brands, we help our clients create sustained impact across lifecycles, portfolios and markets.

Part of the Havas Health Network, we’re built to solve life’s biggest challenges, wherever they happen.

Only The Brave

New medicines only achieve impact when they reach patients who need them.

Only The Brave is a specialist launch partner for pharma and biotech teams bringing new medicines to market. We understand the complexity of launches – from alignment and market readiness to scientific engagement and implementation.

We are senior strategic and scientific thinkers who bring clarity to complexity. Our team combines experienced pharma consultants and agency specialists who translate complex science into impact, blending medical rigour with creative craft.

We work with organisations at a critical moment: when breakthrough science must translate into real-world impact. Supporting medical, commercial and cross-functional teams, we help clients make brave decisions that accelerate access to treatment.

We help clients:

  • Align teams around a vision and roadmap
  • Enable confident strategic decision-making
  • Build connected external communities that drive change
  • Make science compelling and actionable

Many launch partners divide strategy from execution and separate medical from commercial. That can be where momentum is lost. We are designed to blend strategy, medical, commercial and engagement capability, meaning we don’t hand off strategy once the thinking is done. We stay involved, ensuring plans translate into impact.​

Because even the best science needs the right launch to reach patients.

Weber Shandwick

As the earned-first global communications agency, we know that to earn value, you must contribute value. And in healthcare, what value means has changed. Health is no longer just a clinical category – it’s also a cultural force. From mental wellbeing to women’s health and the GLP-1 wave, health now shapes everyday conversation, headlines, politics, business and the economy. Yet while health evolves, the way it’s communicated hasn’t kept pace, often feeling disconnected from the world around us.

That’s where Weber Shandwick comes in. We blend deep scientific and healthcare expertise with insight from our consumer, corporate and public affairs teams to create work that lives in the real world, delivering value for real people. The result is wider reach, stronger relevance, and deeper trust – all driving long-term commercial value for our clients.

Behind it all, our work is powered by AI-backed analytics, strategic planning, award-winning creative and earned-first engagement – ensuring everything we create doesn’t just break through but earns its place in people’s lives.
