Welcome to the 53rd Annual CHPRMS Conference in beautiful Charleston, S.C.
Thursday November 12, 2026 1:15pm - 2:15pm EST
You've invested in research. Crafted compelling messaging. Launched beautiful campaigns. And then... patients arrive and experience something entirely different from what you promised.

This is the brand activation gap-and it's costing you credibility, loyalty, and market share.Brand activation isn't just about getting your message out there. It's about ensuring every patient touchpoint delivers on that message and builds trust. It's about aligning your operations, your people, and your culture with the promises your marketing makes.In this thought-provoking session, you'll learn how to bridge the gap between what you advertise and what your patients actually experience. You'll gain a practical framework for activating your brand internally before going external, monitoring delivery in real-time, and measuring whether your experience matches your promises.This session is for marketers and demonstrates how to integrate in cross-functional teams because brand activation fails when it lives in a silo.
