Think Next is a boutique consultancy specializing in foresight and innovation in health.
We help pharma and health clients of all sizes to understand and harness the key trends that will shape the future of health.
We help you to envision what the future could look like, what your customers will need, now and in the future, and which capabilities and resources you need to get there.
We combine future thinking and health expertise, having worked across a wide range of health conditions.
We regularly interview patients, caregivers, doctors to spot emerging expectations.
That’s what sets up part from other trends agencies & futurists.
At the heart of what we do is always the question: What does the future of health look like, and how to get ready for it?
To answer this question, we continuously scan the environment and look for signals of change:
This helps us to curate our framework of trends based on qualitative and quantitative evidence, to build our internal library of innovations and early signals, and to anticipate and brainstorm ‘what if?’ questions.
Working with trends and foresight required a mix of creativity and analytics. At Think Next, we love data, to help us evidence the trends we’re talking about.
How do people manage their health? How ready are they to embrace emerging technologies in health? Where do they look for health information?
All answered in the Patient Trendscoping research.
To date, our clients have spanned large global pharmaceutical companies, healthcare agencies and start-ups.
100% of our work has been commissioned through referrals and word-of-mouth, from former colleagues, clients or project stakeholders.
Our projects have taken us to ideation workshops from Shanghai to Atlanta, interviewing patients from Sydney or Calgary, and running focus groups in New York or London.
We’re curious globe-trotters, with a good sense of local nuances.
We’re comfortable working without a structured brief or detailed RfPs. Often, our contacts come to us with a problem, or an itch, and we help them define scoping questions and how to answer them.
What are you curious to explore about the future of health?
We’re happy to chat and brainstorm with you – no strings attached.
