The Launch of the Rhine-Main-Neckar Directory, a new Guide to the region!

Heidelberg, 6 March. Last month BioRN, the science and industry cluster of the Rhine-Main-Neckar region, entered a partnership with Biotechgate/Venture Valuation, with the goal to develop and run a publicly accessible directory of companies located in the region.


All the companies can be found also through the map search.

The Directory has just been launched and is accessible for free on BioRN’s website. While it features all Rhine-Main-Neckar life science companies, BioRN members have a special visibility with extended profiles. All the companies can be found both through the advanced search options and through the map search. The directory is closely integrated with the global Biotechgate Business Development Database as well as German Life Science Database, one of 30 regional directories owned by Venture Valuation. Venture Valuation believes that both, the global and the regional database, will be significantly enriched thanks to the partnership. BioRN is the fifth partner of Biotechgate/Venture Valuation in Germany.


‘We are very happy to be a partner of BioRN. The Rhine-Main-Neckar region is one of Europe’s strongest biotech hubs and we hope our directory will prove to be a great tool to give it even more visibility.’ Dr. Patrik Frei, CEO of Venture Valuation/Biotechgate


‘The Biotechgate directory is an excellent way to enhance the visibility of our cluster and – in particular – of all our members. We are very glad about this partnership because it will help us on our mission to develop the region into a world-leading life science cluster.’ Dr. Julia Schaft, Managing Director of BioRN
