Global partnering ; A challenge or opportunity

Bangalore Bio 2008, as a run up campaign,selected a strong message "global partnering" I am in the opinion this fits with the current scenerio
in BIO tech.As rightly admitted in other field that the whole world has become a global village .
Admitting this factor a global partnering should be treated as a opportunity and must be exploited in all true senses.
Kiran mazumdar shaw Chairperson of Bio con,while addressing the

Prof sidney atman,Nobel laureate and sterling professor of molecular
cellular and developmental biology,yale university U.S.A,speazking at the

"90% of ideas that evantually become patents in the hands of companies
are generated in academic institutions."in the terms of contribution to the society,the biotech sector stands in the top league.For an investment of one dollor,this sector is giving back $1,25 to the company and 50 cents to the society.
