Our mission
We forge deep, human connections between underserved communities and medical innovators to create a healthy, just world.
We are inspired by the groundbreaking work of our health innovator clients, whose breakthrough products and programs enhance and extend lives. Yet, due to economic, geographic, social, cultural, and historical barriers, many communities have not benefited from the lifechanging medical advancements pharmaceutical and biotech companies offer. As a result, our clients have missed opportunities to expand their impact and strengthen their commercial success and reputation by more fully representing, engaging, and serving these populations.
Inside Edge exists to change that. Our mission is rooted in the belief that health and wellbeing should not be limited by where people live, who they are, how much they earn, their education level, or how they live their lives. Since 2004, our team of consultants has combined deep industry expertise with long-standing, trusted relationships among national thought leaders and local influencers to give our clients a strategic edge in reaching populations that have limited access to clinical research, face barriers to healthcare services, and are less engaged in the medical system.
By bringing together leaders and individuals with lived experience across all aspects of healthcare participation, access and outcomes, we uncover innovative ways to involve more patients early in clinical testing, educate them about diseases, engage them in treatments, and expand their access to life-changing therapies. Ultimately, our work ensures that our clients, their groundbreaking therapies, and the health benefits they provide are better understood, more valued by, and more deeply integrated into the communities that are critical to future commercial success. In short, we help our clients Make well known™.
Inside Edge is proud to be certified as a Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) by the National Minority Supplier Development Council (NMSDC).
Our values
To build trust between individuals as diverse as pharmaceutical executives, medical experts, health advocates, and community leaders — to be what we call “Trustmakers” — takes a unique set of traits. They’re what we’ve been nurturing in the Inside Edge team since our founding.
Treasure health.
We are passionate stewards of human health—working to achieve and protect it for people everywhere, so they can realize full lives.
Invite difference.
Our endless fascination with the diversity and richness of human biology, cultural behaviors, and lived experiences creates an inclusive perspective.
Listen hard.
Actively listening to people allows us to fully understand and value who they are, where they are coming from, and what they bring to the table.
Discover together.
By exploring issues and opportunities together we find better solutions and deepen our collective commitment to a common cause.
Work bravely.
Progress demands that we are unafraid to take on difficult situations and conversations and to navigate them with confidence, sincerity, and delicacy.
Inspire good.
In celebrating every positive effort and result—and those behind it—we encourage a widening circle of people to join us in helping patients.

The Make Well Known Foundation
In 2016, we launched the Make Well Known Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization that spearheads initiatives that address broad health disparities beyond the scope of any single client. Collaborating with a range of not-for-profit, government, and commercial associations and institutions, we’ve been able to tackle challenges in therapeutic areas, like cardiovascular health, that are particularly critical to populations that are underrepresented in clinical science, under-engaged in the healthcare system, and underserved by the medical field.
Community Engagement
We’re always looking for ways to have a positive impact on the world around us — even beyond the good work we do with our clients. So as an organization and as individuals, we put our skills, time, and resources to work through national and local charities. We’ve even helped to establish two healthcare industry professional networking groups.
- Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)
- Get Together Group
- Habitat for Humanity
- Sisters Network – Central Jersey (SNCNJ)
- Women of Color in Pharma
