    BioPenn highlights biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, industry
service and supply companies, research institutes, non-profit organizations
and universities within Pennsylvania. Companies participating in the inaugural
campaign include AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Shire
Pharmaceuticals Group, Wyeth BioPharma and others. BioPenn joins nine
established Hotbed communities throughout the United States and Australia.
    "Pennsylvania's dramatic growth in the life science sector has called for
the launch of a Hotbed Campaign specifically for the Keystone state. We are
very pleased to welcome Pennsylvania as a stand-alone member of BioSpace's
family of communities," said Brian Vacanti, Division Manager of BioSpace.
    The new campaign features a new BioPenn Hotbed Map, created by BioSpace's
professional artist, and displays the corporate logos and facilities of
participating organizations. The map is further enhanced through the
integration of many functional components, including a BioPenn Hotbed Homepage
on BioSpace's industry-leading Website, BioSpace.com.
    The original 1985 Biotech Bay(TM) Map for the San Francisco Bay Area hangs
on permanent display in the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of
American History.
