CASE STUDY

Turning KOL advocacy into pipeline growth – without stretching the team

How Minnac helped deliver a multi-city scientific roadshow that generated leads and credibility at scale

the CHALLENGE

Great science, limited bandwidth

Katie, a Marketing Director at a growing biotech company, had secured a valuable asset: a respected KOL ready to advocate for their platform. She saw the potential to create something more powerful than a single conference talk — a multi-city scientific roadshow designed to spark engagement and generate qualified leads in key markets.

But she faced a common challenge: she knew why a roadshow would work, but not how to design and scale it. Her team didn’t have the bandwidth or the event strategy experience to pull it off without risk. She needed a partner who understood the science, the commercial goals, and the realities of lean internal resources, and could turn the idea into a high-impact campaign.

Why roadshows?

A scientific roadshow is a multi-location event series that brings your message directly to your target audiences—whether clinicians, researchers, or investors. Roadshows offer a smarter alternative to conferences for companies looking to:

  • Build trust and credibility through expert-led education
  • Drive targeted engagement with curated local audiences
  • Generate higher-quality leads in a focused, low-distraction setting
  • Create a repeatable, scalable campaign model across regions

    It’s one of the most effective tools for building trust, demonstrating credibility, and starting sales conversations that convert.
