Bio

Justin Freid is the Chief Media and Innovation Officer of CMI Media Group. Freid joined the agency 13 years ago when its digital group consisted of just four people, and has since grown his oversight to more than 800 staff members. He built CMI's programmatic, social, and emerging media practices from the ground up, guiding clients into search, Facebook, and YouTube before those channels were widely accepted in pharma. Known for identifying industry shifts early and investing in capabilities ahead of competitors, he also launched CMI's Inclusive Media Center of Excellence to broaden healthcare access for underserved audiences.
