From the Top: Lessons from MarketReach
America |
|
"Sometimes years
of experience can be brought to bear in the most extraordinary
of ways. Such is the case with the Maryland/Israel Development
Center-Trendlines Group partnership called MarketReach
America. Trendlines and the MIDC have worked together for
more than a decade fomenting Israeli/American partnerships
through identifying, qualifying, and introducing Israeli
companies to strategic partners and financial investors.
MarketReach America Life Sciences & Medical Devices
2006 is our fourth MarketReach program; it's now officially
a success-filled tradition."
D. Todd
Dollinger, Chairman
"One of the highlights
of each MarketReach America program is the "Wow!"
moment experienced by the participating Israeli company.
This may occur in response to a session about understanding
the way that Americans communicate during negotiations
and or during a small-group discussion
of supply chain or regulatory issues. Whenever it occurs,
the Wow! moment almost invariably happens. It's a pleasure
to observe. And it's what sets the MarketReach America
program apart from other standard business
development seminars."
Mark Dollinger, President, Trendlines
America
"One of the program's unique benefits
is the involvement of the influential Baltimore Jewish
community. Under the auspices of the Maryland/Israel Development Center, members of the community are eager to assist in finding ways to guide Israeli companies. The Jewish community
includes all types of entrepreneurs
who share their experiences of getting businesses
up and running in the U.S.; business owners and employees
of large corporations who can give guidance about
strategic partnering; and academics in Maryland's
prestigious universities, medical schools, and
research institutions, who provide cooperation
in a variety of ways."
Naomi Alper, Chief Consulting Officer

Why Maryland?
We like to say that Maryland is "your address for
biotech." And it's a great location for MarketReach America.
The greater Baltimore area
is home to the U.S. Food & Drug
Administration (FDA), the National Institutes of
Health, Johns Hopkins, Institute of Genomic Research,
Human Genome Project, more than
300 bioscience companies and federal institutions, and some
200 federal and academic research centers.
