Island promoted as secure location
Emerging biomed businesses seeking backers and a user-friendly location are looking closely at the Isle of Man as their next base.
So say organisers of last week's third Manx BioMed Conference, which brought together 140 delegates from different parts of the industry.
BioMed is where business, technology and medicine merge.
Firms in the sector are known for developing highly innovative approaches to diagnosis and healthcare.
The Isle of Man is promoting itself as a business-friendly, well regulated and secure location for biomed firms.
Conference organiser Courtenay Heading says it's a unique offer:
Rearranged FC Isle of Man vs Prestwich Heys tie cancelled
Island at 'forefront' of British Isles blue carbon research
Five comments and objections received over Ramsey flood defence scheme plans
Water main upgrades planned in Foxdale from next week
