West Conshohocken, Pa., November 15, 2006 – Cadient Group, the premier strategic interactive marketing agency serving the healthcare industry, announced today the 350th implementation of their category-leading interactive convention solution. The milestone marks an increase in client demand for Cadient Group’s Connected Solutions, a proprietary technology platform that integrates events, Web sites, e-detailing and e-mail outreach to maximize the reach, relevance and return on investment of professional marketing strategies.
