BioEnterprise logoCLEVELAND, Ohio — BioEnterprise Inc., the bioscience venture developer in Northeast Ohio, has formalized a partnership with Team NEO to win new medical imaging, neurostimulation, cardiovascular device and orthopedic companies to the region.

Both non-profits work in Northeast Ohio, and sometimes they bump against each other or duplicate efforts, said Annette Ballou, director of strategic marketing and communications for BioEnterprise. So the two organizations developed a strategic plan to jointly attract companies in these four industries.

“We’re going to be the frontrunners,” Ballou said. “We’ll do the cold calls, the meet-and-greets” with out-of-region companies. “We’ll pull Team NEO in when we find a company that’s interested in moving here. BioEnterprise is the industry expert in these areas. We’re not the relocation expert.”

But Team NEO is. “This was the natural progression between two partners that have different areas expertise but a common goal — to advance the region’s economy,” said Carin Rockind, vice president of marketing and communications for Team NEO.
