How Biotechgate Creates a Global Database

With over 1.4 million total entries in the database, we have different tools as well as a team of analysts in place to ensure that Biotechgate users have the most accurate and up-to-date information possible. We utilize a unique data sourcing process to gather a large amount of life science information on both large multinationals as well as small start-ups from around the world.

AI-Powered Web Crawler

Our clinical trials database of over 900,000 entries consistently gathers data from 17 different registries around the world supported by our DISCOVER crawler. This allows access to web pages that aren’t indexed by search engines which other databases may omit. The crawler also analyzes the websites of companies listed on Biotechgate to check for the latest information, including recently closed licensing agreements along with the latest financing rounds.

Market Research Reports

To give users a further edge, we provide a variety of comprehensive market research reports in partnership with Pharmatell. These reports and forecast models from leading brokerage houses give deep insights into various micro and macro trends surrounding the worldwide life sciences sector and its industries. This collaboration not only enhances the existing information in the Biotechgate database but also empowers users to make informed decisions on a global scale.

Self-Declared Data

Over time, around 30% of companies in our database review and update profile information themselves. This gives up-to-date information directly from the source, with their updates being reviewed by one of our analysts before they are ultimately published. If your organization is listed on Biotechgate and you have information to contribute, simply send an update request.  

HelloPartnering

We also run the HelloPartnering platform that has been used for numerous physical, virtual and hybrid conferences since its inception in 2017. With thousands of business professionals utilizing it every year at different events, the platform is linked directly to Biotechgate to allow for another source of self-declared company information, covering aspects such as their up-to-date pipeline and latest financial information.

Collaboration with Cluster Organizations

Key to our update process is our ongoing partnerships with an array of life science clusters and associations from all over the world. These partners inform us of the latest company news in their region, allowing us to closely track relevant changes about the listed organizations as well as keep an eye on new start-ups or spin-off companies from that particular region. Our ongoing collaboration also aids us in creating yearly country reports that show the latest life science industry information in that area.

The combination of these factors allows us to fulfill our goal of having a global database consisting of well-structured, up-to-date information that can be utilized throughout your organization.
