Klick (company)

Klick is a global group of companies in the area of health marketing and advertising. It is the world's largest, independent health agency.

History
Klick was founded in 1997. In 2016 Klick established its offices in New York City. According to Medical Marketing + Media, clients at the time included AstraZeneca, Novartis, Roche, Pfizer and Sanofi.

The company introduced the SymPulse in 2017. It was designed to transmit the symptoms of Parkinson's disease to allow them to be felt and understood by care providers. In 2021 it created ”Community Unity”, a video series with the Vaccine Confidence Project at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine which discusses frequently asked questions about the COVID-19 vaccines.

In 2022, Klick announced regional hubs in Sao Paulo, London, and Singapore. In addition to its existing offices in Toronto, New York City, and Philadelphia, it also planned to open locations in Basel, Buenos Aires, Munich and Tokyo to complement the hubs.

Operations
Klick Health is described by Strategy as the "world's largest independent health agency". According to The Drum, the company has had "double-digit growth every year". In 2006, Klick Health replaced its internal email systems with a new software program intended for messaging and project management. This program, named Genome, incorporates analytics to potentially improve productivity and has been associated with the agency's expansion. The organizational structure of Klick Health has not included a human resources department, which was a point of concern for some employees. Its research and development division is Klick Labs. The division developed an AI program able to analyze people's voices to determine whether or not they have type 2 diabetes.
