Executive Team

When it comes to a skill set, each member of the BioVid staff has multiple areas of expertise - qualitative and quantitative, international research, focus group moderation and IDIs. Pick an attribute and it applies to all. Univariate/multivariate analysis. Internet questionnaire design, advanced training in applied psychology - the list goes on. After all, if they weren't so highly qualified, they wouldn't be at BioVid.


Andrew Aprill

Andrew has spent his career delivering strategic brand insights to clients in the healthcare arena by combining deep therapeutic knowledge with innovative research methods. His expertise is in applying cutting-edge methodologies in a bottom-lined oriented, client-focused context. He has provided guidance to pharmaceutical clients with products at all stages in the lifecycle, but tends to concentrate on compounds in the pre-launch and early launch phases. Over the past decade, BioVid has become one of the most sought-after market research firms in the industry. This is due, in part, by Andrew’s unbending belief that the role of marketing research is best characterized as a tool for decision support rather than as a decision making tool. That is, marketing research should never take the place of sound business judgment or be used by a manager for decision avoidance.

In addition to his role at BioVid, Andrew has been a guest lecturer on strategic marketing at The Wharton Business School, Neibrija International School of Business, Universidad Nebrija, Spain, and Guangzhou University, People's Republic of China.
