As the web grows in popularity, so do the Biotech related business sites.
Here are our 5 top picks for sites that provide high value information and services
in the Biotech Business Arena. A quick reference page of these sites and a few more
can be found at The BioTactics Best Business Sites in
BioTech Page.
 Recap Signals
Recap Signals is probably one of the best and most comprehensive biotech
related sites with news, industry commentary, and searchable databases- companies, clinical trials,
alliances,
valuation
graphs (available for over 470 biotech companies). SEC filings.
Tons of valuable information can be downloaded (most for free) with more detailed
information for a fee. For instance, you can search the clinical trials
database for every company doing research in cystic fibrosis; view the basic terms of each
collaboration involved in those trials; and collect the key names and numbers of
individuals within those companies. Or, take your sense of humor with you when you visit,
and find a partner via Alleles, the biotech
"singles bar".
Well organized, with easy to find information. Loads quickly.
Definitely our favorite Biotech business reference site.
