Press Release Summary: Biotechgate, a leading provider of information on biotech and life science companies run by Venture Valuation and Naturejobs, the careers resource for the Nature Publishing Group, today announced a new collaboration to integrate their services.
Press Release Body: Zurich, December 2007 - The naturejobs.com database, with over 5,000 scientific job posts, will be integrated with the Biotechgate database, which contains information on over 9,000 biotech and life science companies worldwide. Relevant job positions will be highlighted within the Biotechgate regional portals, providing a rich source of information for jobseekers that couples employment opportunities for particular regions with key data on companies in the area to help in decision-making.
"Highlighting available positions in regionally focused portals will help jobseekers considering a particular region to easily and effectively gauge potential opportunities there," says Amélie Péquignot, Business Development Manager for Naturejobs. "It will also enhance the prime opportunity for recruiters from free job posting on naturejobs.com by increasing exposure of job listings to the most relevant candidates."
"The collaboration with Naturejobs allows us to add another very interesting feature to our global Biotechgate portal and our regional sites as well," says Dr. Patrik Frei, CEO of Venture Valuation. "The collaboration with Nature Publishing Group gives us and Biotechgate another validation of our efforts in the last 4 years to put together a major global life science database and biotech directory. The biotechgate profile will allow jobseekers to rapidly obtain a snapshot of companies they are interested in and thus better evaluate particular job opportunities as well as employment prospects in the region overall."
