International Corporate Giants Boston Scientific, ConAgra, GlaxoSmithKline And Others Depend On Portland’s Carenet LLC And Its Medical and Nutrition ExpertsTo Develop, Test And Market Products
PORTLAND, ORE., JULY, 2008 – Spurred on by a sales growth record of nearly 300% as well as a 300% jump in its contact center outsourcing capacity, Oregon’s award-winning Carenet has been named one of the fastest growing private companies in Portland by the Portland Business Journal. The medical and healthcare communications and consulting firm, which recently opened offices also in Washington DC and New York City, now offers clients expanded services like global clinical research recruitment services, drug safety/pharmacovigilance, blogging and social media services.
The Portland Business Journal’s annual list consists of privately held companies whose growth represents the best in the region. In order to be considered for the list, a company must have revenues of at least $500,000 and experienced revenue growth during the past three years.
“Our growth this last year exists in part because of our expanding partnerships and extended outsourcing consumer care solutions with industry giants like ConAgra, GlaxoSmithKline, Fleishman-Hillard, Ethicon Endo-surgery, a Johnson & Johnson company, and Boston Scientific,” says Carenet co-founder, David McCarron, MD, FACP, who has appeared in the New York Times, CBS, PBS, NPR and CNN. “We wouldn’t have this success without Portland’s rich multilingual healthcare workforce.”
