Business Medical English

What sets Business English apart?

Business English is not just about what you say; it is about how you say it. Unlike general English, Business English focuses on the language used in professional settings. It goes beyond basic vocabulary and grammar to include:

• formal writing for workplace communication (e.g. reports, emails)

• clear speaking and active listening for meetings

• persuasive language for presentations and negotiations

• awareness of how communication styles vary across cultures (e.g., directness, formality, politeness)

• the ability to recognise and resolve language-based misunderstandings

Essential Medical Business English skills for life science professionals 

In pharma, biotech and other life science industries, where the stakes are high and teams are global, Business English becomes even more complex. It demands not only fluency but also scientific accuracy, clarity and flexibility. 

You need to be able to:

• use highly specific vocabulary and acronyms correctly and pronounce them with confidence
  
  

• read and interpret complex legal and regulatory documents (like FDA guidelines, EU MDR, or ICH frameworks) and communicate clearly within those frameworks
  
  

• present scientific data and research findings to a range of audiences (clinicians, investors, regulators and the general public) by simplifying complex information without losing precision
  
  

• adjust your language depending on the audience: technical for colleagues, plain for patients and compliant for regulators
  
  

• communicate with empathy, respect and professionalism, especially when discussing sensitive research outcomes or speaking with patients.
