Business. Community.

For four years I have worked with The City of Blue Ash, just 15 miles north of downtown Cincinnati.  Today, we hosted our second Life Sciences Collaborative event.  This one focused upon FDA-imposed Risk Evaluation Mitigation Strategies (REMS).  The symposium was to help pharma companies and research organizations understand how to tackle new regulatory standards in the US and abroad. 

Blue Ash is home to some of Cincinnati's most prominent Life Sciences companies and its doors are open to other firms looking to expand and do business here.  Rather than spend money in traditional "Site Selection" magazines, the Economic Development Director chose to nurture the companies already in Blue Ash.  She has effectively helped the life science business community forge connections with educators and clinicians while promoting the region through Web conferences and through strategic PR.    

Today, the term "community" meant getting interests aligned, sharing education and working together to produce what we all want -  more success, quality work and knowing we took an innovative path to get the job done.
