Investor Relations and Corporate Communications
The change they wanted
- Increase IR visibility and shareholder value for an international company focused on CNS disorders, with a potential breakthrough therapy for a disease impacting nearly 1% of the world’s population
- Develop investor, KOL and strategic partner understanding for the commercial potential of evenamide and its unique mechanism of action impacting schizophrenia and treatment-resistant schizophrenia
- Rebuild investor credibility following an earlier late-stage trial failure that decimated Newron’s market cap
What we did

- Utilized LHS Reach™ to target U.S. and international investment community and secured high-impact meetings at the largest U.S. biotech investor conferences
