ABOUT US

Built for Breakthrough

Life sciences’ hardest problems don’t get solved by good enough. They get solved by breakthrough.

Breakthrough isn’t an idea. It’s an outcome. Insights surfaced. Competitors displaced. Problems unstuck. Markets moved. Patients reached.

BGBx operates as one, fiercely independent company built to deliver it. Our two divisions, Consulting and Communications, work as one. The teams that shape the strategy and the teams that bring it to market are connected by the same standards, the same science, and the same commitment to results.

The work is powered by 3D Science. Behavioral science. Medical science. Data science. Three sciences that collectively reveal how stakeholders make decisions, what’s clinically true, and where the market is going.

Three sciences. One picture. Work that holds up in the real world.

OUR MISSION

Unlock the growth potential of pharmaceutical brands, ensuring life-changing medications reach the patients who need them the most.

OUR VISION

Be the preeminent independent commercial solutions partner to pharma, renowned for scientific acumen, unwavering resolve, and meaningful results.

OUR VALUES

We own the outcome.

Breakthrough only matters when it makes a difference. We carry the work through from idea to impact until the client is measurably better off.

We run up the escalator

We commit to the extra effort it takes to solve hard problems, move faster, and deliver work that makes a difference.

We go beyond the expected.

Clients call us when the path forward is not obvious. We explore the unknown, roll up our sleeves, and find the way through.

We are the best part of our clients’ day.

We bring the thinking, energy, partnership, and ideas that make clients look forward to working with us.

We engage with an open heart.

We stay curious, speak candidly, listen closely, and lead with gratitude.

Two Divisions. One Company.

BGBx is organized around two divisions that work as one company.

BGBx Consulting shapes strategy across the full commercial lifecycle. The division brings together Kx Advisors and Hayden Consulting Group, both of which continue to serve their clients under their established names.

BGBx Communications moves how brands are understood, prescribed, and reimbursed. Three practice areas: Payer Communications, Advertising, and Medical Communications. Each brings two decades of life sciences communications work to every brand challenge.

Both divisions are powered by 3D Science. Behavioral, medical, and data work together across teams and engagements, giving strategy and execution one intellectual foundation. 

Our Heritage

In 2005, two young entrepreneurs, Greg Passaretti and Brendon Phalen, saw a healthcare landscape becoming vastly more complex, where scientific acumen and creative innovation would need to work together to create compelling, credible brand stories. 

Over the next two decades, the company grew rapidly by helping pharmaceutical and life science clients turn complex science into communications that could shape understanding, support launches, and move brands forward across oncology, rare disease, immunology, and beyond. 

As the market continued to evolve, the same founding instinct led BGB to broaden its capabilities as clients needed more support setting the right strategy early and staying on strategy across the product lifecycle. 

BGB strengthened its model with the additions of Kx Advisors and Hayden Consulting Group, bringing deeper expertise in corporate and commercial strategy, market access, patient services, and intelligence. 

Today, BGBx is the unified brand for what these teams have been building together: one fiercely independent company providing consulting and communications that shape strategy and bring it to market. 

The work is broader. The model is stronger. The standard is the same.
