Building Europe's Independent Healthcare Partner

For over 30 years, Vivactis has been building a unique model in Europe: an independent group exclusively dedicated to healthcare, bringing together complementary expertise, local teams, and a shared European governance. More than just a network of agencies, we are an integrated organization designed to provide long-term support to healthcare stakeholders in their European ambitions.

Our Story

From a french healthcare agency to a european operating platform.

Since its founding, Vivactis has grown through organic expansion and the gradual integration of specialized agencies that share a common commitment: to put science, strategy, and creativity at the service of healthcare.

The evolving needs of the healthcare industry have naturally led the group to build an integrated European organization capable of managing multi-country programs while maintaining proximity to and expertise in each local market.

Today, Vivactis Europe brings together complementary teams united by a common goal: to simplify European complexity in order to accelerate its clients’ performance.

How we work

One methodology. Every European project.

Each project follows a common methodology designed to ensure strategic consistency, local foresight and operational excellence.

Our European Hub coordinates the necessary expertise from the very earliest stages of planning in order to simultaneously integrate:

Scientifics challenges
Communication strategy
Regulatory requirements
Realities of each market
Expectations of local stakeholders

This approach minimizes last-minute changes, speeds up deployment, and ensures greater consistency across Europe.

European by design

Thinking globally. Challenging locally.

Every strategic decision is assessed against the realities on the ground at a very early stage, thanks to our local representatives and our panels of KOLs, ROLs, DOLs, pharmacists, nurses, patient organisations and other healthcare stakeholders.

This approach enables us to anticipate regulatory, organisational, cultural and medical differences before the operational launch.

We do not simply translate European campaigns. We develop European strategies designed from the outset to be effective at a local level.
