Hello again dono1420-ga,
You?re in a very tough business as a tenant representative in
commercial real estate specializing in medical technologies. The niche
is hard to find and resources directed at this niche are limited.
Identifying specific companies in the financial bracket you defined is
also difficult.
You posed a spectrum of questions dealing with how to position
yourself to be attractive to the decision makers who deal with real
estate issues in your target companies. I?ve done extensive research
to see if anyone has collected this information in a book, directory
or portal but I haven?t been able to find such a comprehensive
resource. Instead, I found segmented sources that you will have to
interpret and sort and then collate the information for your purposes.
I?ve collected information about the current state of the real estate
market for medical technologies and the related fields of biotech and
life sciences. I?ve also identified the regional biotech clusters. In
addition, I?ve identified leading players in tenant representation in
this field and associations, organizations and publications that
specialize in monitoring the industry.
I believe that the information I?ve collected will answers most of the
questions you asked about how to do business development in your
specialty area.
Best wishes for tremendous success.

Who's Behind Biotech? - industry growth, office space demand
National Real Estate Investor, June 1, 2003
Assessing the Fundamentals
How much demand is there for real estate product built for biotech
tenants? Cambridge, Mass., the epicenter of biotech space on the East
Coast, offers a clue. David Clem, managing partner of Lyme Properties
LLC in Cambridge, one of the leading developers of wet-lab space in
the Boston area, says that over the past 10 years the Cambridge market
absorbed an average of 400,000 to 500,000 sq. ft. of biotech space
annually. Clem believes that in certain underserved markets, such as
greater Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York, similar demand exists.

TENANT REPRESENTATION JOB
=========================
http://www.vault.com/articles/Real_Estate_22107499.html
Real Estate
Tenant Representation
A tenant representation agent, commonly known as a "tenant rep,"
represents companies and other corporate clients looking to lease or
buy either a portion of a property or an entire real estate asset. A
large part of this job involves business development. Since tenant
reps are often responsible for building their own book of business,
prospecting for new clients is a big part of the job. Like residential
agents, tenant reps are left to their own devices to find prospects.
Although there's some direction by the broker and senior tenant reps
in the office, for the most part you're cold-calling tenants or
companies. First, you need to give the person on the other end of the
phone a compelling reason to meet with you, then you must pitch the
business. It's a tough sell.
Tenant representation is very competitive, even cutthroat. You're not
only competing against outside reps but those inside your office. In
fact, some tenant rep brokers think the competition inside is worse
than outside the shops. Often there are disputes about who is entitled
to chase what business. Ultimately, the senior brokers tend to win.
Deal protocol is important to consider when you're selecting brokers
because often there are disputes are common among tenant reps.
-------------------------------------------------
http://www.ciremagazine.com/article.php?article_id=840
All Tenants All the Time
Tenant representatives offer a different view of the corner office.
Regardless of market cycles, an estimated 3 percent to 10 percent of
brokers focus exclusively on representing tenants. While maintaining
good landlord relationships and following win-win negotiation
strategies, their bias is strictly in favor of their clients. In
addition, these specialized commercial real estate brokers utilize
market nuances and work in conjunction with tenants? legal advisers to
structure lease clauses and terms that best meet their clients? needs.

Conley Realty expands tenant representation business
Unlike traditional commercial brokerage services in which the broker
represents the property owner, tenant and buyer representation focuses
on the other side of the transaction.
The average company needs to make a major real estate decision only
every five or 10 years--where to locate a store, how much space to
take for a growing division, and when and where to move, Conley said.
Those decisions are crucial to a company's bottom line. CGS will do a
needs-assessment and can provide a wide variety of services on a
consulting basis.
About $80 million, or 90 percent of the company's business last year,
was tenant- representation work. Conley said regional demand for those
services will continue to grow.

Real Estate Report Showcases Biotech Hubs
Bio-IT World, 2004-07-01
by Shabnam Sigman
Boston , Massachusetts
At Bio 2004, commercial real estate services firm Colliers
International and its partner Spaulding & Slye Colliers announced the
release of Alchemy, a global life science real estate report that
includes in-depth information about nine major life science
"clusters," as well as emerging markets.
According to Nancy Kelley, senior vice president and managing director
of life sciences for Spaulding & Slye and Colliers, the newness of the
life science real estate industry means that little information has
been available until now. The Alchemy report "is the first review and
analysis of real estate trends," she said.
The 80-page report discusses the drivers and challenges in the life
science real estate industry, and explains the "geographic clustering"
effect. It also details the features of life science real estate,
including design criteria and building services, and how to redesign
facilities for pharmaceutical manufacturing in order to reduce the
cost of drug discovery and development.
The Brookings Institution in 2002 identified nine economically strong
and growing life science biotech centers in the United States.
Alchemy features overall characteristics, supply and demand dynamics,
and key trends for each of these major clusters. Each section lists
major institutions and companies, the amount of available lab space,
and rental prices for that particular geographic area.
