October 2023, New York, USA – The MM+M Awards celebrated its 20th year of recognizing healthcare marketing and media that is the most creative and effective in the industry.

AXON and client Myomo, Inc, picked up a Silver Award at the MM+M Awards 2023 in the “Use of Market Access Marketing” Category. With hundreds of industry leaders entering, representing agencies and organizations large and small, the MM+M Awards are notoriously tough to win, so walking away with this special award is an exciting and proud moment for us a brand.

“It is always a great honor to be recognized by your peers, but we are particularly proud of our work with Myomo as it directly benefits patients and supports access to technology that can help restore function in their hands and arms.” Ralph Sutton, International Managing Partner

AXON received an award for a life-changing program that tackled the reimbursement and access challenges for patients eligible for and needing MyoPro® (an electronically controlled brace that can help a user regain function in their arms and hands following paralysis caused by a stroke, brachial plexus injury, cerebral palsy, or other neuromuscular disease or injury).

“I went to the orthopedic consultant, and he said, ‘There is nothing we can do for you. The nature of your injury precludes any involvement surgical or otherwise.’ In terms of me being a recipient of this device? My gosh, I can’t imagine life without it. I never knew MyoPro® existed. I can reach for a door now. I’m seeing the balance coming back into my day. It gives me hope that I will be me again.” Angel, Patient

Our work clearly matters: good communication initiatives can improve lives. This demands that we continue to find new ways of thinking and doing every day, and we did just that – well done to our client and the AXON US team! Congratulations, and on to the next exciting chapter of award-winning projects and programs.
