COMMENT BY BIOINFORMANT:  Leading global players within cord blood industry frequently attain their industry dominance through industry collaborations.  In the announcement below, released May 11, 2015, CariCord and ClinImmune Labs announce a major industry partnership that will study the survivability of umbilical cord blood stem cells under micro gravity (Micro-G) simulation.

CariCord, a private stem cell bank at the University of Colorado, is a FDA-licensed cord blood manufacturer that has processed nearly 9,000 cord blood units and released 700+ for transplantation across 150+ hospitals worldwide.  While CariCord is not as substantial in size as other key players within the U.S. cord blood industry (most notably Cord Blood Registry, ViaCord, and Cryo-Cell, respectively) the company is positioning itself for increased visibility and growth through this strategic collaboration.

Cord Blood World Europe – Bringing together Public and Private Banks, Clinicians & Researchers

By

BioInformant is excited and proud to announce our sponsorship of the Cord Blood World Europe Congress 2015 as an essential global event for those participating within the cord blood and regenerative medicine community. BioInformant is deeply committed to advancing progress with human umbilical cord blood, because cord blood contains valuable hematopoietic stem cells and cord tissue (“Wharton’s Jelly”) contains valuable mesenchymal stem cells. 

As the first and only company dedicated to tracking the stem cell market, BioInformant tracks this important market segment within our global strategic report the “Complete 2015-16 Global Cord Blood Industry Report.” We also have an entire section of our blog dedicated to breaking cord blood industry news. Additionally, we have a partnership with the Save the Cord Foundation, a non-profit dedicated to cord blood banking awareness and education, in which we run a joint awareness campaign called “Cord Blood Banking Awareness: Educating America and the World.” The campaign is a global effort to educate currently expecting parents, as well as future parents, grandparents, siblings, and friends, about the medical benefits of cord blood preservation.

For expectant parents, there are thousands of decisions to make in a short amount of time, including clothes, cribs, names, birthing methods, medical procedures, and more.

Two of those decisions require research and action on behalf of the parents, while the third is what happens when sufficient awareness and education has not been provided to allow parents to make an informed, educated decision.
