Media Minds Roundtable

Our Media Minds group leads T2B’s media relations programming by leveraging member expertise to strengthen journalist relationships and address the evolving needs of reporters covering our industry. We aim to foster a more cohesive communicator ecosystem across life sciences, shaping the future of healthcare storytelling.

Roundtable objectives

  • Conceptualize and develop quarterly press panel ideas and create outreach lists.
  • Identify targets for monthly Biopharma Beats Bulletins (media Q&As), with opportunity to provide input on questions and potentially sit in on the interviews.
  • Develop media invite lists for specific T2Bmeets.
  • As needed, leverage professional connections to engage reporters in T2B events and programming.
  • Suggest updates and/or new programming ideas focused on media relations.

Why join

  • Enhance your professional visibility and impact among the T2B community of hundreds of communicators.
  • Build on your media relationships and establish new connections by leveraging T2B’s brand and mission (vs. pitching for your company or client).
  • Help set the standard for biopharma media relations best practices and strategies.
