Yes, but depending on what kind of commercial insights! If CI or Market research WITHOUT any background in health system or other domains such as access, evidence or even regulatory strategy, then I have no really seen anyone who has been able to transition. On the other hand, seen lots and lots of folks who have spent good time in other domains including insights to land ED and above role in portfolio strategy. Diversify your skillsets in the name of the game and if one is just doing core insights for many many years, it's really hard to transition and most don't even want to transition.
