Background

About David Stanavage

Global Pharma Marketing leader with a passion for turning strategy into impact. I specialize in shaping brand narratives, designing omnichannel HCP and patient experiences, and driving behavior change to improve health outcomes and deliver long-term value. With deep expertise in marketing strategy, product launches, CX, behavioral science, AI tools, and cross-functional leadership, I’ve led blockbuster launches like ENTRESTO (>$7B annual sales) and advanced life-changing products like LEQVIO, Pelacarsen, COSENTYX, Ianalumab and Remibrutinib in Cardiovascular and Immunology. I thrive at the intersection of strategy, creativity and behavior—combining scientific data, emotion, and storytelling to build meaningful brand connections. I lead diverse international teams, solve complex challenges, and foster global-local collaboration that drives consistent, behavior-changing execution. Fun fact: I take roles as a background actor (Statist) in Swiss film and TV—fueling my passion for emotive storytelling, symbolic detail, and human connection, all of which make me a sharper, more empathetic marketer. 🧩 Let’s connect if you're passionate about strategic storytelling, omnichannel health innovation, and building brands that move people and markets.
