In October 2016, Quintiles and IMS Health completed a $17.6 billion merger to become QuintilesIMS. Building on a 12-year client relationship with Quintiles, the Signal team was given the task of creating strategic assets and executing the interim QuintilesIMS brand across all channels, within a compressed period of time. We also played an integral role in refining the new brand standards, logos and color palette.
QuintilesIMS adopted its new name, IQVIA, in November 2017. In just a few short months, Signal met the challenge of implementing the new IQVIA brand (which was developed primarily by another agency) through the rebranding of a vast number of existing assets and creating critical new assets. Our creative work helped to create excitement about the new organization, showcasing how IQVIA uses analytics and science to help healthcare stakeholders find better solutions for their patients.
