GrowthLoop Expands AI Decisioning Capabilities Into Biopharmaceutical Marketing, Turning Customer Context Into Smarter Campaigns for Healthcare Providers

Published

on

Continuous experimentation informs AI decisions on when and how to engage healthcare professionals

NEW YORK, Nov. 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — GrowthLoop, a pioneer in agentic AI-powered marketing solutions, and EVERSANA®, a leading independent provider of global services to the life sciences industry, today announced an expansion of their Composable AI Decisioning solution to include biopharmaceutical marketing, improving when and how marketers engage healthcare professionals. Building on GrowthLoop’s composable CDP and AI Studio, the AI decisioning applies continuous experimentation to identify which marketing actions improve healthcare professional engagement and use those findings to inform AI decisioning and guide subsequent interactions.

The work addresses a practical challenge for biopharma marketers more broadly. First-party data can show past engagement metrics, but marketers also need evidence of which marketing actions make a difference, for which audiences, and under what circumstances — causal data. Powered by continuous experimentation, the GrowthLoop team, together with partners including EVERSANA, is building a Causal Context Graph, a knowledge graph unique to each organization that continuously captures healthcare professional context and learnings from prior interactions to provide reliable, verifiable feedback for AI decisioning.

“Our pharmaceutical clients need more than just another performance report or audience segment. They need to understand which marketing decisions result in a measurable, impactful difference for the metrics that matter most to their bottom line and the marketing decisions that are most likely to yield the highest returns in the future,” said Faruk Capan, Chief Innovation Officer, EVERSANA. “GrowthLoop’s expanded AI decisioning capabilities are a huge step for the industry.”

Experiments reveal opportunities to improve engagement

In one campaign, GrowthLoop’s decisioning capabilities identified opportunities to improve send timing and channel selection. The results were measured using a weighted composite engagement score that combines digital engagement and prescription activity, allowing life sciences customers to bridge optimization across clinical and digital outcomes:

Experimentation can uncover opportunities that predictive models alone may miss. Existing models predicted audiences would respond better to afternoon sends, but GrowthLoop’s experimentation and AI decisioning uncovered that morning sends delivered a 13% higher weighted composite engagement score than afternoon sends.Channel selection can make a meaningful difference for specific audiences. Digital display advertising, such as banner ads on websites or apps, delivered a 52% higher weighted composite engagement score per user than email for audiences sourced through peer-to-peer (P2P) programs. Other audience sources showed no difference, indicating an opportunity to shift P2P-sourced audiences toward display advertising rather than change the channel mix across all audiences.

GrowthLoop’s enhanced capabilities are especially important in highly regulated industries, where teams must adhere to detailed restrictions for both messaging cadence and data security. With its warehouse-native architecture and journey orchestration tool, GrowthLoop was able to support the team’s specific goals while maintaining industry compliance.  

Connecting immediate signals with longer-term objectives

To evaluate campaign performance, customers can use a weighted score combining email views, email engagement, and prescription activity. Prescription activity receives the greatest weight because it is the primary business objective. But prescription data is often delayed by months and provides less frequent feedback, so GrowthLoop’s multi-objective optimization also uses digital engagement signals to help clients learn from campaigns as they progress.

That learning builds across repeated interactions. Each time a healthcare professional moves through a campaign journey, the system uses those learnings to inform subsequent choices, including send timing, the interval between touchpoints, and channel selection.

“Frontier AI has made remarkable progress in math and coding because those fields are verifiable: you can run tests at scale and check the proof. But AI can’t solve enterprise growth yet, because — unlike math and coding — marketing is not a verifiable domain.” said Anthony Rotio, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of GrowthLoop. “Historically, marketing has lacked causal evidence of what actually engages a customer or changes an action. But these results demonstrate how GrowthLoop is making marketing verifiable and applying causal learnings to move the needle for the business.”

GrowthLoop’s composable CDP foundation brings audience segmentation, customer journey orchestration, campaign activation, and performance analysis together on the data cloud. With AI Studio, Composable AI Decisioning, experimentation tools, and newly released Engagement Suite, it creates a Compound Marketing Engine — a closed-loop marketing system that learns and improves with every campaign.

Building on this closed-loop system, GrowthLoop’s roadmap includes real-time decisioning for known and unknown audiences using customer context already available in the data warehouse, with the ability to incorporate new in-session behavior planned for a later phase.

See this case study on stage live at Martech World Forum, New York, November 4-5, 2026

Rotio and EVERSANA’s Head of AI Agency Abid Rahman will showcase their work together at Martech World Forum, in a session titled “AI is superhuman at math and code. Why not marketing?” They will share practical starting points for experimentation and explain how they built the Causal Context Graph to support AI-powered campaign optimization.

Zhejiang aims to be highland of AI innovation

Published

on

By

BEIJING, Nov. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ –A news report from China Daily:

The 2026 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit concluded on Thursday after a four-day run. Beyond Wuzhen, a profound transformation driven by artificial intelligence is underway in Zhejiang’s workshops, laboratories and daily life. Building on years of efforts to deepen the Digital Zhejiang initiative, the province is aiming to become a hub of AI innovation.

In the first eight months, revenue of enterprises above designated size in Zhejiang’s core AI industry reached 582.87 billion yuan ($87.2 billion), up 26.9 percent year-on-year. The number of core industry enterprises rose to 2,112, forming a full industry-chain layout spanning chips, large models, intelligent agents and application services.

Computing power is one of the key infrastructure pillars of Zhejiang’s AI development. At a sock factory workshop in Zhuji, a designer can generate 20 original patterns within three minutes. In Yiwu, traders rely on an AI computing platform to produce high-definition product images and marketing short videos with a single click.

Powering these AI application scenarios is a province-wide integrated computing network built by China Mobile’s Zhejiang branch.

As of the end of September, Zhejiang’s total computing power reached 197 EFLOPS (short for ExaFLOPS, a unit of computing performance that quantifies the number of floating-point operations a computer can perform per second), ranking among the highest in the country. Of this, 54 enterprises and institutions in the province received national computing-power vouchers totaling 408 million yuan, accounting for 37 percent of the national total.

“As the Hangzhou and Jiashan intelligent computing centers are put into operation, Zhejiang can achieve millisecond-level access to computing, integrated computing-network scheduling and one-stop security assurance,” said Qiu Xiaoyuan, a manager at China Mobile’s Zhejiang branch.

Large models are another key factor to the game. With the Qwen and DeepSeek large models iterating continuously, Zhejiang’s model ecosystem aims to take the leading position.

In the 2026 government work report of Zhejiang, the province proposed the goal of gaining a leading position in AI development and striving to build a high-quality open-source ecosystem. Open source has been listed as one of the core levers of the province’s AI strategy.

Located in Xihu district, Hangzhou, the ModelScope community is among China’s largest AI open-source communities. Online, it brings together more than 29 million AI developers and more than 200,000 models worldwide, lowering the threshold for AI-related innovation.

Chen Tianrun, born after 2000, is a doctoral student at Zhejiang University and founder of Moxin Technology, which independently developed MoWorld, a real-time interactive world model built entirely on domestic neural processing units. An NPU is a specialized computer microprocessor designed to mimic the processing function of the human brain.

“The relationship between AI and humans is not about AI replacing humans, but about AI and humans working together to do more to raise productivity,” Chen said.

Backed by new production factors such as computing power, models and data, Zhejiang is breaking through its natural-resource constraints to become a trendsetter in innovation.

The Zhejiang provincial government hosted a series of major events during the 2026 WIC Wuzhen Summit, featuring interactive experiences and surprises.

On Monday, at the Light of Internet Expo, a signature event of the WIC Wuzhen Summit, more than 30 embodied-intelligence robots — from companies such as AgiBot, UBTech, Unitree and Zhongke Fifth Era — brought visitors to the world of perceptual intelligence.

Among them, the world’s first bipedal humanoid robot capable of playing badminton with humans autonomously became the centerpiece. The robot has also mastered table tennis; the faster the ball travels, the faster it reacts.

The Global Internet Competition of “Straight to Wuzhen” is another highlight event of the WIC Wuzhen Summit. Since registration opened in June, it has attracted 1,347 projects and one-person company entries from 31 countries and regions.

The Digital Economy Industrial Cooperation Conference held on Wednesday was a signature event of the Wuzhen Summit’s permanent venue. Over the past three years, annual signings of digital economy industrial projects at the event have each exceeded 100 billion yuan.
