Your guide to unlocking the complex secrets of healthcare marketing in Japan.

Japan’s healthcare market is the second largest in the world and its healthcare spending is ever on the rise. This makes Japan a lucrative and attractive target for many pharmaceutical companies around the world. Yet many attempts at pharmaceutical product launches and business expansion in Japan are less than successful. Why is that?

It’s not because the healthcare market in Japan is an impossible market to penetrate. It’s simply because Japan is different. In order to have a successful launch in Japan, you need an expert guide; one who can unlock the complex secrets of the Japanese culture, Japanese market research and the intricacies of the Japanese healthcare system itself.

Achieving the most insightful results from qualitative research in Japan takes an optimized, intuitive approach. That’s why you need Orient Market Insight. Our team of experienced moderators will be your guide throughout your journey of exploration of the Japanese healthcare landscape. We will bridge the gap between your organization’s desire to expand in Japan and the opportunities that await.

Unlock the insights that come from  qual experts who can adapt content to context.

Your research instruments in Japan must be optimized and contextualized, not simply replicated and translated. And, if participants’ responses aren’t translated and interpreted for you in real time during a session, you’ll lose the only opportunity you have to clarify their answers and get the insights you need. That’s the edge you’ll get when you work with Orient Market Insight. Other inbound marketing research companies may simply translate your discussion guides without offering you feedback on why those questions won’t elicit the responses you need, due to cultural differences and nuances. Hiring interpreters and moderators isn’t enough. You need experienced, insightful and engaging moderators/qual experts who understand not only what YOU need from the research, but also the Japanese healthcare system, the nuances of the culture and the hidden subtext in the responses of the key stakeholders, such as Key Opinion Leaders, healthcare providers, patients and caregivers.
