physical and digital activities with pharmacists using IQVIA
Technologies’ end-to-end solution.

DANBURY, Conn. & RESEARCH TRIANGLE PARK, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–IQVIA™
(NYSE:IQV) today announced that Zambon,
an Italian multinational pharmaceutical and fine-chemical company, has
selected Orchestrated
Customer Engagement (OCE), IQVIA Technologies’ transformative
commercial engagement technology, to maximize customer interactions and
to make a real impact within the retail channel.

Zambon will utilize OCE to manage multichannel communication across the
commercial teams of its OTC business to provide an enhanced customer
journey that leads to more impactful relationships with pharmacists.

OCE removes companies’ vertical silos and enables employees to
understand how their colleagues are interacting with customers so they
can achieve more effective customer engagement. OCE will allow Zambon to
become a stronger player able to offer more customized solutions to its
stakeholders within the pharmacy and retail businesses.

“Supporting Global Commercial Excellence, we wanted to provide our reps
with the best sales tools to ensure a distinctive customer experience
globally. With this new common CRM platform, Zambon will equip each
pharmacy rep with selected advanced features, resulting in Customer
Excellence along with a distinctive pharmacy experience and a greater
impact on customers,” said Luigi Boaretto, Global Head of Commercial
Excellence and Strategic Planning. “We’re excited about the native
integration offered between sales and marketing. Our teams can now be
more efficient and better collaborate as we establish a new paradigm in
Customer Experience.”

One of the ways OCE accelerates performance is through its Artificial
Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML) capabilities. AI/ML automates
administrative and repetitive tasks, providing an advanced user
experience. OCE’s AI/ML engine leverages natural language processing
techniques to generate insights based on data. From these insights, OCE
gives users real-time recommendations in order to capture every growth
opportunity.

“Zambon is a highly innovative company and appreciates that utilizing
the right technology is a major driver in achieving critical business
outcomes,” said Tal Rosenberg, senior vice president, Global Technology
Solutions at IQVIA. “We are thrilled that they are embracing OCE to
transition from transactions to experiences –giving their customers the
type of engagement they want.”
