What HMP Global does
HMP Global is a privately held omnichannel healthcare events, education, and insight company founded in 1985 and headquartered in Malvern, Pennsylvania. The company delivers more than 450 annual events across 600 medical specialties and engages a global community of nearly 2 million clinicians, reaching them through flagship conferences such as Psych Congress, the Symposium on Advanced Wound Care (SAWC), the Leipzig Interventional Course (LINC), and EMS World Expo, alongside digital media platforms, accredited online education, and peer-reviewed medical journals. Its core technology is an omnichannel content delivery platform spanning in-person events, virtual/hybrid events, the HMP Global Learning Network, Consultant 360, and the Oncology Learning Network, all unified under HMP Omnimedia and HMP Education business units.
HMP Global generates revenue through multiple streams: event registration fees, sponsorship and exhibitor revenue, subscription-based access to accredited CME/CPME/CE education, peer-reviewed journal subscriptions, professional services delivered through HMP Collective (medical strategy and marketing for pharma and medtech clients), and data monetization through HMP Market Intelligence (anchored by the Drug Channels Institute acquisition in January 2024). Customer segments include practicing physicians, nurses, advanced practice providers, behavioral health professionals, senior living executives, and pharmaceutical and medical device companies.
The company operates three offices in the United States (Malvern, PA and East Windsor, NJ) and one in Leipzig, Germany, supporting global reach across more than 70 countries. HMP Global has executed five acquisitions since mid-2023 to extend therapeutic verticals (mental health, dermatology, aesthetics, IBD, vascular, oncology) and adjacent capabilities (pharmaceutical market intelligence). Jeff Hennessy Sr. serves as Chairman and CEO. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent or institutional investor ownership.

HMP Global competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Elsevier (RELX): Operates one of the world's largest medical and scientific publishing portfolios (The Lancet, ScienceDirect, ClinicalKey) alongside clinician learning platforms. Comparable as a major accredited content and journal publisher targeting healthcare professionals, but at significantly greater scale and breadth than HMP Global.
- Wolters Kluwer Health: A global incumbent in medical reference, clinical decision support, and healthcare professional education (Lippincott, Ovid, UpToDate). Comparable in monetizing clinician audiences via journals, accredited education, and pharma-supported content channels, though much larger and more diversified than HMP Global.
- Informa Markets (Informa Connect): The events and exhibitions arm of Informa plc, operating large healthcare and medical conferences (e.g., Arab Health, Medtrade) and B2B media brands globally. Comparable as a large-scale healthcare event operator, though Informa's portfolio spans many industries beyond healthcare.
- WebMD/Medscape (Internet Brands): The largest digital clinician-and-consumer health platform, offering free CME/CE, news, and reference tools to a massive physician audience. Comparable as a scaled clinician-education and pharma-marketing channel, but predominantly digital-native vs. HMP Global's event-and-journal core.
Direct peers
- Clinical Care Options (CCO): A privately held provider of accredited CME/CE and medical education programs for healthcare professionals, with a strong focus on HIV, oncology, and hepatitis. Directly comparable as a digital-first clinician education and pharma-supported content platform competing for the same sponsor and learner audience.
- Haymarket Media: A privately held B2B media group with a significant medical communications division (Haymarket Medical) running journals, events, and digital education for clinicians — directly comparable to HMP Global's specialty medical event and journal model.
- Pri-Med: A long-standing medical education company running large primary-care and specialty CME conferences and digital learning. Comparable as a U.S. medical education operator whose event-and-online-CME model directly mirrors HMP Education's accredited programs.
- Frontline Medical Communications: A medical communications company producing peer-reviewed journals, CME activities, and live events for specialists. Comparable in operating a portfolio of clinician-facing publications and conferences in therapeutic areas overlapping HMP Global's wound care, psychiatry, and oncology franchises.
- MJH Life Sciences: The most direct private competitor: a privately held, founder-led healthcare media and education company running dozens of physician conferences, peer-reviewed journals, and accredited CME/CE programs across oncology, dermatology, and other specialties — directly overlapping HMP Global's event-and-journal business model.
Emerging players
- Doximity: A public digital professional network for U.S. physicians that has expanded into news, CME, and pharma marketing solutions. Comparable as a clinician-aggregator monetizing the same HCP audience HMP Global serves, but as a digital-native network rather than an event-and-journal platform.
