Luto, a leader in patient-centered healthcare communication, is thrilled to celebrate 20 years of success with the opening of a new office in Basel, Switzerland. This expansion marks a key milestone in Luto’s mission to improve patient information on a global scale.
Founded at the University of Leeds and still based in Bradford, West Yorkshire, Luto has spent two decades transforming complex medical information into patient-friendly content. The new Basel office places our proudly Yorkshire-based company right at the heart of Europe’s Life Sciences sector, enhancing collaboration with pharmaceutical and healthcare organizations in the region and worldwide.
To celebrate this milestone, Luto invited clients, partners, and industry leaders to join an exclusive launch event on 19th March 2024, in Basel. The event included insights into Luto’s vision for the future, discussions about the evolving landscape of patient information, and provided opportunities to network with influential figures in Swiss Pharma.
We are a proudly Yorkshire-based company that has forged long-term collaborations with the two largest Swiss pharmaceutical companies by revenue. By combining the expertise of University of Leeds academics with the insights of engaged lay audiences, we conduct meaningful research and design that contributes to positive health outcomes worldwide.
