Dear User,
This is an experiment to see how many BIOTECHNOLOGY firms , of the 200 that I have found registered with companies house, are using the internet. It is also a means by which I am willing to try to construct a database along the lines of BIOSCAN in the USA. This is a register of collaborative agreements.
The register is aimed at all types of organisations that are involved in the biotechnology industry, and will be one of the few sources in the UK containing this information,
If you wish to help create such a database please complete the short questionnaire below.
The information will be kept confidential if the contributors require this. Contributors will also be provided with summary statistics if the survey solicits sufficient response.
I thank you for your co-operation and look forward to communications in the near future.
Yours
Jag.
