NEX & COM

What NEX & COM does

Nex&Com SAS is an independent French health communication agency founded in 1999 and headquartered in Paris (24 rue Erlanger, 75016 Paris). The company operates through three integrated service pillars: a Medical Agency (product, institutional, and patient communication), Medical Education (strategic analysis, expert board organization, publication strategy, KOL profiling, and scientific data mediation), and Medical Events (Professional Congress Organizer services for scientific societies and pharmaceutical laboratories). An internal team of approximately 30 specialists is distributed across six expertise poles — strategy, medical, commercial, event, creative, and digital — delivering end-to-end campaign and event work for French pharmaceutical companies, scientific societies (CFPV, JPP, SFLS, SNFMI), scientific publishers (Horizon & Thérapie), and public health institutions (Santé Publique France, CNAM, EFS). The firm is one of the few remaining independent agencies in the French health communication sector, holds Qualiopi certification from Certifopac, and is registered as a French training organization (#117 56 90 39 75).

The agency's primary commercial technology is the proprietary e-meded digital platform, which extends its medical education offering into virtual engagement. The platform comprises five modules: e-rencontre (small-group virtual KOL exchanges), e-board en live (digital expert working meetings), e-événement (live event broadcasting with interactive features), e-immersion (immersive hospital video documentaries), and Plateau Virtuel (a virtual TV studio supporting up to 8 remote speakers, green-screen integration, and simultaneous streaming across three platforms). The firm's broader technology stack is otherwise conventional — a WordPress-based corporate website with AddThis social sharing and Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn buttons — with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, public API, or software SDK.

Commercially, Nex&Com operates as a B2B professional services firm on a quote-based, project-by-project pricing model. Revenue is generated from three service streams: medical education engagements, medical events/PCO services, and broader healthcare communication campaigns. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is customized per engagement. The company is privately held as a SAS with €500,000 in share capital, has no external investors, no parent company, and no acquisition history. Geographic operations are confined to France, with the registered training footprint limited to the Île-de-France region.
