Gil Bashe

Managing Partner, Global Health

From battlefield to boardroom, nothing has kept Gil Bashe from advancing people’s well-being and access to health innovation. As a combat medic in an elite paratrooper unit, he tended to the wounded under fire. As a C-suite and global practice leader, he sees communications as the bridge to connect healers with those seeking to be healed.

Throughout it all he is dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives and instilling a culture where colleagues are empowered to do the same. At FINN Partners, which makes a difference through collaboration and shared values, he has a role to which he is perfectly suited. As head of the FINN Global Health Practice, he champions the talent and ideas of the nation’s “Healthcare Agency of the Year.”

Prior to FINN, he led Health Practices at other agencies—Sutton PR, Medicus PR, Hill & Knowlton, and Makovsky—which were all selected by The Holmes Report/PRovoke as “Most Admired Health Agencies.” Earlier in his career, he worked in government affairs for a global non-profit, spent time as a health-industry state lobbyist focusing on drug development and environmental health, served as Group Company CEO of CommonHealth and was CEO of Health!Quest Global Communications (the portfolio company of top private-equity group GTCR).

As an advocate for health innovation that improves the human condition, Gil currently serves on the Decentralized Trials and Research Alliance, CNS Summit Leadership Council, Galien Foundation, Let’s Win for Pancreatic Cancer, mHealth Israel, and Marfan Foundation advisory boards and previously on boards for the American Heart Association, Leukemia & Lymphoma Foundation, and American Academy of Pain Medicine Foundation. Listed among “The Top Brains in the New World of Work” by Fast Company, recognized by the PRSA Health Academy for “Excellence in Public Relations,” selected for the PR News “Hall of Fame” and is the recipient of the PM360 “Trailblazer Lifetime Achievement Award.”
