Who We Are

Evollvere is a boutique medical, marketing and coaching consulting firm headquartered in Zürich. We partner with life science organisations — from global pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical companies to emerging biotechs — and specialise in rare diseases, providing customised solutions that move the business forward.

Our team brings 25+ years of senior experience across medical affairs, marketing, commercial operations, training and leadership development. We work as an integrated firm: combining individual specialist expertise with a wider network of life science consultants in marketing, medical, market access, market research and training.

Why we focus here:

Deep launch & lifecycle management expertise
Global launch strategy and brand positioning
Medical affairs & scientific credibility
Digital/marketing strategy expertise

Long-term partnerships (18–24 month launches)
KOL relationships & market navigation

We’ve supported rare disease launches and emerging biotech market entry across EUCAN and globally.

We partner with specialists on market access and market research. We lead on medical, marketing strategy, digital/omnichannel strategy, launch excellence and brand management.

We know the playbook. We move fast.
