Bridge-BSR Plans for New Financing Network for Biotech

The creation of a new financing network for biotech SME's in the Baltic Sea Region is on the agenda for an EU co-funded project (FP7) called Bridge-BSR. The objective of the financing network is to close the financial gap, which is a barrier for the exploitation of academic research in SME's throughout the region. 

Bridge-BSR aims to bridge academic research and SME's within life sciences and biotechnology in the Baltic Sea Region - the ScanBalt BioRegion. Bridge-BSR consists of 7 project partners: ScanBalt, Medicon Valley Alliance, Bioforum Oulu, BioCan Valley, Estonian Biotech Association, IPPT-PAN, Latvian Association of Biotechnology, and Steinbeis Team North East.
