Singapore – Klick Health, an independent healthcare marketing agency, has acquired the Singapore operations of creative healthcare agency Ward6.
Klick’s acquisition aims to expand the Singaporean health communications agency further, which is renowned in the healthcare marketing industry.
The acquisition also strengthens Klick’s capabilities in the Asia-Pacific (APAC). The addition to its client portfolio is part of the agency’s ongoing global expansion.
“We are proud to welcome our newest Singaporean Klicksters to the world’s largest and most integrated independent healthcare marketing agency, not to mention the most-awarded of all healthcare agencies last year. We’re also very excited to work with their impressive roster of pharmaceutical and consumer health clients to deliver even more expertise, passion, and value to their businesses,” Graeme Read, Klick Health managing director, APAC, said.
Ari Schaefer, Klick Health president, commented, “We’ve been focused on bringing the Klick magic to more life sciences clients in Asia Pacific since expanding here over two years ago. Ward6 Singapore has deep expertise in HCP marketing in the region and we are excited they are joining us to further scale our team and answer the growing demand we’re seeing from clients.”
“We are immensely proud of the work we have accomplished during our 14 years in Singapore. We were flattered when Klick leadership approached us and are delighted that our team will continue to excel as part of Klick Health and its expanded Singapore operations. Both our organizations share a commitment to fostering outstanding work environments and advancing the life sciences sector,” Stuart Black, Ward6 CEO, said.
Recently, Klick announced its acquisition of Peregrine Market Access, a communications specialist in life sciences in the U.S.
