Dear clients and colleagues,

As before this year’s budget that used to be for physical Christmas mailings to three selected organisations who do incredible work throughout the year in different areas. They were not chosen for their size but for how close we feel to their cause, how they are run, how well we know the people who run them and the difference they make for the people they support locally.

We would like to help raising their profile. So please check them out and help supporting them if you can: AZAHAR Foundation, Lisa’s Gift, Sporting Star. We thank you for your trust in us and look forward to hopefully supporting you again during 2023.

The groupH Team

Since its inception in 2005 the virtual working model of groupH has meant our impact on the planet, due to emissions, has always been minimal.  Employees only travel for essential business and home-office working erases the need for a daily commute or a separate building infrastructure with its inherent energy needs.

We have now quantified our collective carbon output and negated all unavoidable emissions with investment in a carbon offset project.  Our 40t of annual carbon output are offset by supporting the Nuetech Solar Water Heater Program, which promotes the distribution of solar water heaters and technology throughout India.  The groupH effect on the global climate will thus remain neutral moving forward.

Through this initiative groupH are sending a clear message that we have a desire to work together to build a more sustainable and better world for our colleagues, clients and the global community.

Dear clients, friends and colleagues,

No doubt, everyone has been impacted by Covid-19 in more than one way and every week we learn more about the clinical impact of the virus and its impact on communities, the economy and livelihoods.

We anticipate that the situation of social distancing measures is here to stay until at least 2021 and that restrictions generally may be eased or tightened again depending on infection rates and potential second or third waves at a regional and local level. As most healthcare systems in the Western world are probably past the peak of the outbreak we now continue to engage in commercial strategy and primary research work. We observe that expert doctors and payers make themselves available again, with their insights and experience, without necessarily impacting on Healthcare system frontline staff.

However, delays are still possible as doctors transition to eliminate a backlog of patients and scheduled surgeries, depending on the indication. We have adapted our methodologies and approaches to the constraints of not being able to meet in person through effective online alternatives.

For further details please contact any of groupH’s directors and senior consultants.

We hope you stay safe and keep productive.

Best wishes,

Erik Holzinger, London

As 2019 draws to a close the groupH team came together to reconnect and reflect on another busy year.  It made for a truly special occasion to see colleagues from as far afield as San Francisco, Spain, Germany and Scotland in one place.  Our venue was the Cromwell Room in the historic and beautiful St Mary’s Church in Putney, where we were treated to a seafood and vegan feast provided by our very own private chef.

groupH wishes you all a Joyous Festive Season, and we look forward to serving you again in 2020.

At the close of a very busy last month of the year the groupH team got together at Berry Bros. & Rudd, Britain’s oldest wine and spirit merchant, in London’s St James’s. Deep underground in one of their cosy cellars, it was a great opportunity to connect with colleagues, old and new and to enjoy a selection of Old World wines for a couple of hours.

groupH wishes you all a Happy Christmas and Happy Holidays. We are closing our office for a short while to recharge our batteries and spend some time with family and friends.

We look forward to serving you again in 2019.
