Event Overview:

When designing a commercial forecast model, one of the key challenges every forecaster must face is how to segment their market. And it’s no wonder – by country, line of therapy, biomarker status, age, site of care, comorbidity - there are so many options! Previously, re-doing a patient or market segmentation was a big endeavor, and there were limited data resources to support very detailed, granular segmentation.

Recently, the availability of real-world data has enabled a massive increase in the level of detail forecasters can use to approach their segmentation strategy. In this webinar, we’ll look at different methods of market segmentation and how to evaluate the tradeoffs between different segmentation strategies for your product.
