Member Discounts
LifeScience Alley offers members a variety of discounted programs and services to help build and sustain their businesses.
As the state chapter of the Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO), we offer our members access to BIO's Business Solutions ProgramSM, which includes bulk purchasing discounts on office and lab supplies, clinical trial insurance, and many other useful services from national suppliers.
We have also partnered with three member organizations, Nimlok Minnesota/ABF Display Co, Principal Life Insurance Company, and RJ Ahmann Company to offer additional discounted benefits to our membership.
LifeScience Alley members may also sign up for new discounted subscriptions for publications such as Medical Device Daily, BioWorld Today and others industry titles published by AHC Media LLC. View trade publication discounts (PDF)
