Manuela BASSO - External Communication Manager

About Me

"The important thing is not to stop asking questions. Curiosity has its own reason to exist. - Albert Einstein -
I have been working in the pharmaceutical industry for almost 5 years, getting up every morning to improve the lives of millions of patients.
My curiosity and my creativity help me to find new ideas for the external communication activities of Nemera (world leader in pharmaceutical devices).
Thanks to my sense of organization, but also my adaptability, I coordinate all the activities on and off-line, institutional and product messages, the organization of events and press relations.

Familiar with transversal operations, multicultural environments and ultra-competitive markets, I would like to join a dynamic and customer-oriented company to evolve with it to improve the brand image and the results.
