2007-2008 BioCapital Hotbed Homepage
FT WORTH, TX, May 29, 2007 - BioSpace, the leading online information source for life science careers and content and a subsidiary of onTargetjobs, unveiled this morning the seventh edition of the BioCapital™ Hotbed Campaign for the life science communities of Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and Washington DC. The unique branding and awareness campaign highlights the organizations that constitute the dynamic biopharmaceutical industry in the Mid-Atlantic region.
The initiative features both promotional and functional components to work in conjunction with the economic and workforce development initiatives of the Mid-Atlantic region. The much anticipated BioCapital Hotbed Map, http://www.biospace.com/hotbed_map.aspx?ContentEntityID=936, created by BioSpace’s artist, displays the logos and building pictures of participating companies. Various print collateral pieces featuring the iconic BioCapital image will be distributed to life science professionals at regional and international events throughout the year. The map is also available for download on the BioCapital Homepage, http://www.biospace.com/hotbed.aspx?RegionID=9 which maintains critical daily biopharmaceutical industry news and information from the region.
A number of different types of organizations are featured as part of the campaign, reflective of the diverse set of foci and talents necessary to grow a life science cluster. The effort includes bioscience companies engaged in R&D, service and supply providers to the community, and also research institutes, non-profit organizations and universities. Detailed online profiles of the participating organizations include contact information, career opportunities, financial updates and history, and can be found through the BioCapital Homepage. BioSpace also hosts online hundreds of biotech and pharmaceutical employment opportunities from the area, as well as two annual Life Science Career Fairs in Bethesda, Maryland.
“Now in its 11th year, BioCapital continues to provide the BioSpace audience with daily navigation and information on the area’s bioscience leaders and innovations,” said Wes Crews, CEO of BioSpace. “Through the BioCapital section in the BioSpace Career Center, every month thousands of people apply to biotechnology jobs and pharmaceutical jobs in Maryland, Virginia, Delaware and Washington, DC.”
