Saidat Amirkhanova is one of Europe’s leading digital strategists. Trained as an engineer in her native Russia she started her professional career in banking. She then moved to consulting to advise corporate and startups clients on their e-business and commercial strategy.
Since joining Eli Lilly in 2001, she helped some of the biggest pharmaceutical brands in France and internationally to engage with patients and physicians online. Saidat earned a reputation as a high-energy self-starter, defying widespread scepticism about the value of digital selling and unbranded services and launching some of the premier and most successful remote detailing pilots in Europe. Among the innovations to have come out of her latest tenure is the first global community platform for nurses, created in collaboration with the world’s most prominent nurses associations.
In February 2013 Saidat started up a digital healthcare accelerator studiorx.
