These challenges stem from a poor understanding of market dynamics and customer needs, including inaccurate targeting and underestimation in converting customers. Cytel’s approach integrates asset value considerations early, addressing these hurdles through robust evidence generation and strategic stakeholder engagement to prevent value loss and navigate shrinking access windows effectively.
