About us
Your precision team for new product planning and go-to-market strategies
Biotech companies have to navigate an extraordinarily challenging task in developing and commercializing innovative therapies. To make the right decisions along the way, they must do more than collect data —they must translate them into meaningful strategic insights that drive execution and operational decision making. This requires a thoughtful approach, driven by an experienced team.
Akimbo brings this level of thoughtfulness to every project and client, leveraging a highly-experienced, cross-functional team. We believe that less is more — we engage in only a few projects at a time and focus on delivering remarkable results. From market research and data analytics to strategic planning and tactical execution, we help biopharma companies not just understand their options, but confidently decide and act on the best path forward.
