Together they will deliver rich, adaptive digital health programs ─ based on substantiated patient needs ─ to help patients better manage their conditions, ultimately improving health outcomes.
“At Foundry3 we listen to the voice of the patient to design successful digital health support initiatives based on positive behavior change, value to the patient and clinical relevance,” said Alex Butler, co-founder of Foundry3. “By partnering with ERT, we leverage their 50 years of scientific, clinical and technology expertise to provide the global scale, structure and governance needed to meet the pharmaceutical industry’s growing demand for more effective global patient support programs.”
