Our Story

Blue Fin Group

Our founder started our company after spending years working with pharmaceutical manufacturers helping them understand the full economic flow to their products. Our first client was a top 5 pharma company that wanted to overhaul their channel strategy for a $16B portfolio.

Blue Fin Group set out to create a new kind of consulting firm. We wanted a firm that could create long-range strategic plans as well as achieve short term traction against goals. So we combined the best of the larger firms in regard to people and methodology and professional consulting skills like research, analysis and design, with the best of the independents, who held deep subject matter expertise. To this we removed the concept of practice areas and created cross-functional commercial experience, helping the entire commercial team create a holistic plan.

Twenty years later, we are helping companies across all major therapeutic areas. Blue Fin Group has helped to launch multiple cell and gene therapy products, facilitated dozens of orphan and rare disease products, and engaged with a host of specialty products across the medical and pharmacy benefit reimbursement constructs. We are just as comfortable and skillful working with the top pharmaceutical companies as well as start-ups with one asset. Blue Fin Group’s core mission and focus is to look after the innovation process better than any other firm. Every day we set out to do this for clients, helping them adapt and stay ahead of the curve in a rapidly evolving pharmaceutical and life sciences marketplace.
