Zurich / Melbourne, November 2015: Venture Valuations Biotechgate and AusBiotech, the Australian Biotech Industry Association, have entered into an agreement to create a comprehensive directory of Australian biotechnology and life science companies and extend the network and reach of Biotechgate.

The Australian Life Sciences Directory will have a standalone web address and will also be a part of the larger Biotechgate global life science database (www.biotechgate.com), which includes more than 35,000 company profiles. Thanks to a comprehensive search form and automated alerts, it allows users to seek for specific companies filtering by sectors, indications, product phase and many other categories. Biotechgate produces directories for the largest life sciences clusters in the world, including BioCom in San Diego, Canada, France, Germany, Maryland, Sweden, Switzerland and UK.

Dr Anna Lavelle, CEO of Ausbiotech said: “We are pleased to be able to deliver this initiative in support of Australian biotech companies. Support tools like this new Australian directory help sector growth by enabling communication, linkages and access.”

Dr Patrik Frei, CEO of Venture Valuation said: “Increasing our Australian exposure has been important in the last 18 months and we are very happy to have one of the world’s most important biotech clusters as a partner. The database will help to provide foreign companies better access to innovative companies in Australia.”

The Biotechgate Database is the property of Venture Valuation AG, Switzerland. Biotechgate is a global life science database providing the user with information on life science companies, licensing products, financing rounds as well as key data on management structures and technology platforms. It also contains a database on licensing deals and associated financial information on individual deals.

The Australian Life Sciences Directory will be initially set up with publicly available information via company websites and once launched and live, companies will be able to log in and update and tailor their details.
