Our ApproachChinaBio® Today provides investors and industry professionals with analysis and insights into China's biotech industry that cannot be found anywhere else. All of our content is written by our analysts, Greg B. Scott, Richard Daverman and Jean Meng (Shanghai), or guest authors and is exclusive to us... no rehashed articles or summaries with links to other sources.
From our offices in Shanghai and California , we use a combination of “insider” and local knowledge, scientific understanding, and business and technical expertise to provide you with the critical information necessary to make better investment and business decisions in this exciting but highly complex market segment. And now you can have direct access to our analysts.
What We Do
Our analysts monitor many industry sources for published and unpublished information on China's biotech industry that yield clues as to where the next big success – or failure – may be. Then we add additional value through our commentary and analysis based on our many years of experience to help you determine which companies may best meet your investment or business strategy.
Most importantly, with our Professional Subscription plan, we combine this high-value content with direct access to our analysts. As a Professional subscriber, you can contact us via email or by phone and ask us anything you need to know – the market potential of a new drug, validity of the science, long term potential of a novel therapeutic approach – and we'll personally provide you with our informed opinion based on our prior research and analysis. See our Subscription Plans for a description of specific services included with your subscription, including full access to our archives with over 1600 articles, advanced search capability, and ability to comment on articles.
Skepticism Pays
By nature, we are a skeptical group, in part because we review as many as 200-300 businesses each year for our investment clients – both public and private – and in part because we're on the ground in China and have seen the good and the bad. We know that biotech is a risky and volatile industry to start with, and even more so in China, unless you know the pitfalls to avoid. But the rewards can, of course, be huge, especially for the private equity investor.
The trick is in knowing which company is capable of creating successful drug candidates that will survive preclinical testing and the incredible rigors of clinical trials to become the next big drug. Less than 1% make it through this process, and most of those become also-rans, not blockbusters. It's also vital to know when to invest – when a company will achieve the greatest increase in value. We are often called upon to write or lecture on investing in biotech, and we make this information readily available to our subscribers. (See our Education Center.)
