continue to expand their international network of offices, associates
and partners with the opening of an office in Sydney, Australia
to further extend their global reach in the delivery of business
acceleration services for high growth technology companies.
The company,
headquartered in Belfast already operates additional offices in
Bracknell, UK and San Jose, California. The Asia Pacific region
has always been an integral part of the company development strategy
and the merger with Récolte Consulting helped to expedite
the process more effectively. Récolte Consulting, operated by Emilio
Robles with associates in the USA, China, and the USA will assume
operations under the Simentra brand with Robles acting as Managing
Director for the Asia Pacific region for the company.
Simentra have
since their inception in November 2001 grown the business to over
30 people associated with the delivery of their range of Business
Acceleration services. The company are already impressing their
services upon the University arena, technology incubators, inward
investment agencies and commercial technology companies in Australia.
With the national market restricting the potential international
growth of high technology, Simentra are hoping to introduce the
best that Australia has to offer on an international basis.

| As
part of the consolidated approach to sector based initiatives, Simentra
launch a new Health Sciences Business Unit to provide international
business acceleration for high growth companies.
The Health Sciences Business
Unit is being led by Brenda McCleary, operating from the
Bracknell, UK office and promoted through Simentra international
offices in the Americas and Asia Pacific in addition to the company
associate and partner network. The Health Sciences Unit will assist
in access to funding initiatives for early stage companies, seek
partner and alliance programs and gain insight into international
markets and the regulatory environment.
The business unit will
serve pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, medical device
firms, healthcare providers and other high growth firms in the Health
Sciences continuum. Simentra have recently established operations
in Australia and it is hoped that international market expansion
projects will be provided for companies seeking opportunities to
license or sell intellectual property to major brands in international
markets.

| A
comprehensive international study was commissioned by Technium,
a Welsh Government technology incubation initiative in the UK, to
identify areas of best practice for technology business acceleration
in a comparative study between the west coast of USA and the UK
market.
Simentra completed the
international study on technology business incubation for the Technium
programme, a range of technology incubators being established by
the Welsh Government in the UK to accelerate early stage companies
and foster business partnerships between the government, academia
and commercial institutions.
The campaign
was managed by Gareth White, a Director with Simentra who operates
the Incubation Business Unit at the company. White coordinated panel
discussions during the course of the 3 month assignment in California
with a series of industry influencers, venture capitalists, incubation
operators and early stage technology companies.
The USA based program
was also designed to develop an international Associate Programme
for the Technium facilities in the UK. Working with the International
Business Incubator in San Jose, California the study included examples
of policies, infrastructure and business support mechanisms being
utilised by technology incubators in developing nations in addition
to the review of the Californian based facilities.
