Kajsa Wilhelmsson has joined Edelman’s health practice as director of European health public affairs.
She will be based in the company’s Brussels office and moves to the agency from European think-thank Health Consumer Powerhouse, where she was instrumental in growing the group from a Swedish start-up to a global force in health consumer information.
Wilhelmsson has more than 20 years of experience in the political, media and corporate environments and prior to her work at HCP, Wilhelmsson worked for Baxter, HELA (the Swedish trade association for private healthcare providers) and Swedish Nuclear Fuel.
Laurent Chokoualé Datou, general manager of Edelman Brussels, said: “Kajsa has an unrivalled profile and compelling credentials in a range of health-related European regulatory, public affairs and advocacy issues. I am thrilled to enlist her as part of our team and look forward to her making a strong contribution to our business.”
