Helping life sciences companies succeed requires more than groundbreaking science. It also requires access to the resources, partnerships, and support that allow innovation to thrive.
MassBioEdge helps life sciences companies save on essential supplies and services through exclusive discounts, favorable terms, and personalized support. By leveraging the collective purchasing power of more than 1,700 member organizations, the program secures rates and benefits that individual companies often could not achieve on their own. Together, these savings exceed $300 million annually, helping companies fund research, bridge financial gaps, and accelerate commercialization.
Bringing MassBioEdge Savings to Life
To help members better understand and take advantage of these benefits, MassBio hosted Summer Savings Week, a four-day initiative showcasing the many ways members can save through MassBioEdge. Throughout the week, members had access to educational resources, expert-led training, exclusive limited-time offers from Preferred Partners, and opportunities to connect with the broader life sciences community.
Resources and Training to Help Members Save
Each day of Summer Savings Week highlighted a different way MassBioEdge can support members across their operations. The week kicked off with a Fisher Scientific spotlight focused on smart purchasing, highlighting how members can save an average of 40% on critical lab supplies and services.
On Tuesday, the focus shifted to workforce mobility and travel, with Corporate Traveler inviting members to discover their business travel persona through an interactive quiz and enter for a chance to win a free flight. Wednesday centered on compliance, safety, and risk reduction, with Veolia hosting a free training on the safe transportation of regulated medical waste.
The week wrapped up with a focus on connection, bringing members and MassBioEdge partners together at the MassBio Summer Mixer to network, learn more about available savings and promotions, and build relationships in person.
Exclusive Offers from MassBioEdge Partners
Summer Savings Week also gave members access to exclusive, limited-time promotions from MassBioEdge partners. Offers included 95¢-per-pound dry ice for new Middlesex Gases customers, 25% off AED service and 10% off first aid service from Crown, 10% off Veolia safety trainings, and a complimentary snack package or huddle room upgrade with a MassBioHub event booking. These promotions provided additional opportunities for members to save on essential services while connecting with trusted partners that support their day-to-day operations.
Connecting Members and Partners at the Summer Mixer
The week concluded with the MassBio Summer Mixer, bringing the savings and partnerships highlighted throughout the week to life. Eleven MassBioEdge Preferred Partners sponsored the event, giving them the opportunity to connect face-to-face with members, share more about their offerings, and build relationships across the MassBio community.
An interactive scavenger hunt encouraged attendees to visit partner tables, make new connections, and learn more about the resources and savings available through MassBioEdge. The lively atmosphere provided a fitting conclusion to four days focused on helping members get more from the program.
Helping Members Focus on Innovation
Summer Savings Week demonstrated how MassBioEdge delivers value beyond cost savings by connecting members with trusted partners, practical resources, and opportunities to strengthen relationships across the life sciences community. Together, these benefits help companies direct more of their time and resources toward what matters most: advancing innovation.
