The Marketing Consultation

Welcome to the second season of The Marketing Consultation. In this episode, we have the pleasure of hosting Clement Rey, a seasoned Medtech industry leader and a Co-Active Coach in training.
Clement's journey is a testament to the power of self-reflection and continuous learning. His career began with a series of exciting experiences abroad, including volunteer work in Peru and a stint in the hospitality industry in New York. These experiences, coupled with his time as a junior research analyst in a healthcare fund, shaped his interest in the healthcare sector and led him to pursue an MBA at INSEAD.
Today, Clement serves as the Senior Marketing Director for Cranial Spinal Technologies Western Europe at Medtronic. He held diverse marketing positions at Medtronic before moving into business management and being then back to marketing. His leadership journey is guided by his life purpose of supporting others to thrive by becoming a better person.
In this episode, Clement shares his insights on the evolution of marketing in the Medtech industry. He recalls his first product launch, a time when marketing was focused on producing leaflets, brochures, and leveraging specific congress to support launches. Fast forward to today, and the landscape has dramatically changed. The industry is now embracing an omnichannel approach, integrating functions, utilizing data, and focusing on customer and buying journeys.
