Life Sciences Ontario and BioTalent Canada today announced the creation of a new partnership providing access to new and valuable services for bio-economy businesses throughout Ontario.
The newly forged alliance allows Life Sciences Ontario members to access BioTalent Canada's many products and services, in particular, the country's only national, bilingual biotechnology job board, "The PetriDishTM." ™
"Human resources are directly linked to funding and capital," says Rob Henderson, Executive Director of BioTalent Canada. "Business tells us attracting and retaining top-notch talent poses a real challenge for growth. This partnership with Life Sciences Ontario helps them face those challenges."
Life Sciences Ontario sees great advantages in the partnership. "By providing easy access to BioTalent Canada's HR tools and services, Life Sciences Ontario can provide additional value for our member companies and positively impact their commercial success, "says Jason Field, Executive Director of Life Sciences Ontario.

Through this partnership, we can now strengthen the connection between our highly- skilled talent and employers within the life sciences community."
The partnership coincides with the launch of BioTalent Canada's new website - biotalent.ca.
