Steve Neumann, Principal

Steve Neumann has been leading insight-driven  commercial innovation projects for the majority of his career.  From the formative front-end of innovations to qualifying ideas at later stages,  Steve continually brings an in-depth knowledge of the prospective purchaser/user to program design and management.  Steve has been involved in the launch of over 150  innovations, from flavor or form extensions to new-to-the-world categories. An area of specialty is Rx-to-OTC switch where he has been at the forefront of such notable switches as Claritin® (AR and Hives), MiraLAX®, Lotrimin® Ultra, Zegerid® and Oxytrol® as well as a host of aborted or unsuccessful switch projects which  have served as  a great source of learning. For many of these switch programs, Steve was  key player in the strategy and regulatory development plans and presented at numerous FDA meetings, including two Non-Prescription Advisory Committee Meetings and several Industry-FDA round tables.  Steve also has designed and executed consumer research programs to support device approvals.
