Digital Pioneer Award Winners 2020

Enbrel eCongress

The ENBREL eCongress provided unique access for HCPs to immerse themselves in rich ongoing education and engage in meaningful dialogue through emerging innovative technology. In a landscape of fierce competitors, ENBREL solidified its place as a digital trailblazer by employing this cutting-edge solution to reach a broad HCP audience.

The ENBREL eCongress was an innovative, first-in-class virtual 3D congress environment — available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year —for ongoing HCP education. The virtual congress, housed on a branded microsite, featured exclusive access to clinical data, mechanism of action videos, patient education, publications, and presentations as well as information about upcoming events. The eCongress provided the clinical value of a traditional congress booth with the unprecedented benefit of access anytime, anywhere.

Emerging, innovative, virtual technology. The 2009 economic environment presented unique challenges for many healthcare brands, including diminishing congress attendance. The ENBREL eCongress was born out of this barrier to HCP engagement. The digital forum provided a cost-effective solution without any travel or scheduling limitations, while still providing a focused, personal convention experience. The eCongress provided a first glimpse of the future of individualized education and self-guided detailing.
