Mind+Matter(an Ashfield Health company, part of UDG Healthcare), a ‘global creative powerhouse in health’ is celebrating its first year of business after securing more than £4 million in new business revenue across key strategic wins that span pharma, medical devices, consumer and animal health clients.

Since the launch of its new proposition in January 2021 following the merger of Pegasus, Ashfield Digital and Creative and Cambridge Biomarketing, the UK Mind+Matter team, led by Corrina Safeio, has gone from strength to strength, drawing on the expertise of its world-class experts based globally.

New senior roles include the promotion of Ian Rayfrom Associate Creative Director to Creative Director, and Kesha Tansey to Client Director. Ian and Kesha join the UK Mind+Matter leadership team and will pay a key role in shaping the future strategy and direction of the agency.

Safeio says it’s already very clear by the raft of new business wins that the health sector needs a deeply interconnected, cross-sector response to both existing clients and new client challenges.

“It’s been a phenomenal first year for Mind+Matter and I’m extremely proud of our talented team and what we have been able to accomplish together. Creating meaningful experiences by bringing data and emotion together to drive behaviour change is at the heart of what we do, day in day out. It’s this proposition alongside our health first, sector second approach that has chimed most with clients –existing and new.”

At the heart of the Mind+Matter offer is CHANGE, a behavioural science-led strategic methodology co-created with the internationally recognised Centre for Behaviour Change at University College London (itself an expert voice in the public health response to Covid-19).

In its first year, Mind+Matter also launched Gravity.ai a first of its kind global healthcare intelligence data platform. Gravity.ai incorporates artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, data modelling and scientific human consultancy to better understand audiences, behaviour and channel performance, ensuring clients get the best value for their investment.

Safeio adds: “Covid has shown how our individual health is also a truly global issue and personalised communications have never been more important. Matched with our deep earned, owned and paid expertise, Gravity.ai allows us to discover meaningful links between demographics, technologies, and customer behaviours and track the changing dynamics of HCP, patient and consumer communications in a rapidly shifting digital world. This powers our planning model CHANGE, along with proven behavioural science. It’s powerful stuff that delivers impactful, measurable results.”

Ben Beckley leads the new agency from Boston in the US, along with Managing Directors Corrina Safeio and Carina Whitridge, who head up the EMEA and US regions respectively.
