Recognizing life science leaders in the Midwest such as BioSante (Illinois), Eli Lilly and Company (Indiana), MGI Pharma (Minnesota), and Pfizer (Michigan and Missouri), the campaign also includes prominent research institutes, non-profit organizations and universities. Midwest Research University Network, The Center for Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine (Ohio), and University of Notre Dame (Indiana) are featured.
BioCrossroads, Indiana’s life sciences initiative, is one of the major supporters of the campaign. BioCrossroads also maintains a BioZone page within BioSpace.com that features information on their initiatives and other items specific to the state of Indiana.
The BioCorridor campaign presents a BioCorridor Hotbed Map, created by BioSpace’s professional artist, which displays the corporate logos and facilities of participating organizations. Copies of the map are available through BioSpace.com. The map is further enhanced through the integration of many functional components including a BioCorridor Hotbed Homepage, on BioSpace’s industry leading Website, BioSpace.com. The BioCorridor page features the latest bio-pharm news, jobs, events and other information from the Midwest region. BioSpace will market the campaign online and at major national life science events throughout the year.
“BioSpace is happy to welcome the Midwest region to our community of life science clusters. We have enjoyed working with the different states involved in the effort and anticipate many more campaigns as the area and its industry continue to grow,” said Brian Vacanti, Division Manager of BioSpace.
