Benefits of membership and participation with the Edison Centers
"Beiersdorf’s Cincinnati operation sent its entire materials department to Strategic Procurement & Negotiations Skills training. All the buyers came back with renewed enthusiasm and anxious to try out the techniques that Fred presented at the training session. The strategy of “ok is ok” as well as the chart of flat sales and declining margins and revenue really helped our suppliers understand our situation and how we needed their help to tip the scale in the other direction. To date, Beiersdorf has achieved annualized savings slightly over $200,000. Thanks for sharing your strategy and most importantly for the savings accrued so far."
"Membership in Omeris keeps DHI in-the-know and connected – to potential collaborative partners, to funding sources, and to biotech-related economic development initiatives driven by state resources. The fall annual meeting is especially enriching to all entrepreneurs – it’s a great venue to network for success and learn about best practices from others big and small in the field. And support from Omeris includes more than exploring sources of funds – the folks and expertise at Omeris understand the issues you face to compete in this rapidly emerging industry of bioscience commercialization – they have always been there for us, and they will be there for you too."
"TechSolve taught me a whole new line of thinking. I learned to ask, ‘What if,” to get outside the box."
"Our membership in Omeris has provided us with a platform to assist and support the development of Ohio's bioscience industry. It has enabled us to connect with clients and furthered our ability to deliver specialized services to fit the needs of our bioscience and emerging growth clients. Omeris membership also provides prospective clients with immediate recognition of our dedication and leadership within the industry."
