Veronica McGovern

Associate Research Director, Strategic Consulting

Veronica joins Galileo with a wide range of experience in the pharmaceutical industry, which informs her work as a moderator and strategist. She started her career in advertising, working across a number of therapy areas including oncology, diabetes and ophthalmology. From there she spent some time working in patient engagement, recruitment and retention for clinical trials, with a focus on neurological conditions. Most recently, Veronica worked in a strategic role overseeing pharmaceutical market research projects among HCPs and patients across a variety of clients and therapy areas, with special focus on oncology, rare disease and immunology. This varied experience, coupled with her educational background in marketing and biology, have given Veronica a holistic view of the product lifecycle, which helps her to better address clients’ needs. Veronica is passionate about patient advocacy, and always strives to ensure that the voice of the most important stakeholder – the patient – is front and center in the work she does.

Outside of work, Veronica enjoys spending time with her family and friends, taking long walks with her puppy, Minot, traveling and reading.
