What Medval Scientific Information Services does

Medval Scientific Information Services, now operating as Woven Health Collective, is a privately-held U.S. healthcare communications and technology company founded in 1998 and headquartered at 40 Fulton Street in New York. The company serves pharmaceutical and life sciences clients across North America through an integrated portfolio of nine service lines: medical communications, advertising, learning solutions, scientific publications, strategic consulting, patient advocacy, speaker bureau management, and a tech & transformation practice, plus a proprietary SaaS platform called CMGO for healthcare-professional (HCP) and key opinion leader (KOL) engagement, medical affairs workflows, advisory board management, and compliance reporting. The platform is SOC 2 Type II certified and is offered alongside managed services, blurring the line between a traditional medical communications agency and a vertical SaaS vendor.

Revenue is generated primarily through enterprise professional services engagements under quote-based pricing, augmented by a growing recurring-revenue SaaS stream from CMGO licensing. The go-to-market motion is direct enterprise field sales with dedicated business development contacts per service line and a demo-request pathway for CMGO, indicating consultative, long-cycle selling into pharma brand teams, medical affairs organizations, and commercial leadership. Geographic footprint spans four offices — New York (headquarters), Montreal, Atlanta, and Raleigh — covering the U.S. Northeast and Southeast plus Quebec, Canada.

The company has been repositioning itself through a 2025 corporate rebrand from Medval to Woven Health Collective under the tagline 'Imagination Through Science,' signaling a strategic shift toward an integrated, technology-enabled collective model. Recent capability additions include AI-powered coaching simulations built with Copient.ai, an in-house digital studio for AR/VR immersive learning, and integration partnerships with MedPro Systems for compliance data. Leadership comprises CEO Jeanne Martel and President & Co-Owner Rosie Lynch; no external investors, parent company, or funding rounds are disclosed in available source material.
