While the role of the sales rep is certainly changing, the
industry shift towards intelligent engagement means it

van den Burg of Veeva Systems discusses the fact that

before. And it’s estimated that by 2020, 67% of HCPs
will be “digital natives”; they will have qualified during
or after the internet went mainstream, and have relied
on digital interactions throughout their professional
careers.
