Known to colleagues as a decisive change agent unafraid to take on big challenges, Tim Pantello has built a career committed to innovating and delivering best in class to internal and external stakeholders alike. In the first decade of his career, he established a strong foundation in pharma marketing from both the rep and agency-client leadership perspective, and has since spent the last 15 years helping to transform it. 

As CEO of Relevate Health, Pantello has steered the agency’s continued transformative growth, 70% year over year 2022 to 2023. Relevate Health was the fastest climber of any incumbent in the most recent MM+M Agency 100, rising 19 places with Pantello as the catalyst. By repositioning the company toward “Omni Know-How,” he has advanced its offerings through investments in technology and data, expertise in omnichannel activation and streamlining operations and infrastructure following three acquisitions over as many years. Pantello serves as co-chair of the Medical Advertising Hall of Fame, where he is tasked with honoring historical contributions within medical advertising and inspiring the next generation.
