Customer experience in biotech is being forced to mature fast, even as operational realities get tighter. With IBM estimating the average cost of a data breach at $4.45M in 2023 and 72% of respondents saying they’ve ended a relationship with a brand after poor service, the stakes are higher than most teams expect. At the same time, contact center and customer service tooling is scaling quickly and GenAI momentum is building, with 82% of organizations planning to expand AI in customer service in 2024, creating a sharp contrast between rising capability and the retention risk biotech leaders can’t afford.
