We Are

Accenture Song Life-A Partner for Growth

The Agency of Record model we all grew up with was built for stability-long planning cycles, rigid campaigns, and success measured in outputs. Today demands something more. With evolving pipelines, diverse patient populations, and accelerated launches, the challenge is not just communication-it's staying continually relevant.

At Accenture Song Life, we reinvented the AOR to be a true growth engine for biopharma-anchored in one objective: helping you fuel growth by building continual relevance.

We do this by being Smarter, Faster, Better

Smarter-intelligence-led, powered by AI, data, and life sciences expertise, so your brand is always one step ahead.

Faster-an agile, adaptive model that scales global blockbusters and targets rare disease communities with equal precision, moving at the speed of science and patient need.

Better-world-class creativity combined with Accenture's technology and consulting rigor, shifting from campaigns to outcomes-like launch uptake, adherence, and market share.

The reinvented AOR is not a supplier-it's a growth partner. Accenture Song Life brings creativity, technology, and strategy together to serve as your growth engine-continually relevant, always accountable, and built to deliver impact for patients, providers, and your business."
