Through Sean’s stewardship, Succinct has become the pre-eminent medical education agency in its field, a fact confirmed by market research conducted with industry personnel each year. The company has grown from 2 to 30 people, and the vision of providing a ‘no nonsense’ service, closely aligned with its clients’ needs and based upon sound principles, still stands.

Succinct is recognised by a broad range of clients and by other agencies as an innovative medical education company, known for its scientific expertise, knowledge of the wider healthcare environment and for its experienced, dedicated employees. Sean has been part of the pharmaceutical industry for almost 20 years. He has vast experience of working across many therapy areas, conducting expert advisory board meetings and in managing all aspects of educational meetings and satellite symposia around the globe. Sean has worked with many international key opinion leaders, both from academia and the clinical setting, on a wide range of projects. Sean is also involved in training across a broad spectrum of pharmaceutical disciplines as well as chairing and speaking at a number of high profile industry strategy meetings.

Before setting up Succinct, Sean held senior marketing and management positions with a number of mainstream pharmaceutical companies in the UK, EU and internationally.
