The partnership aims to help both companies to broaden their geographical reach, strengthening their offering in particular for global pharma clients and cross-border health organisations. Services offered will include market research, medical education and the promotion of pharmaceutical products, and the partners claim theirs will be 'the broadest-reaching online medical marketing communications network outside the US'.

Doctors.net.uk has more than 174,000 members who are licensed UK doctors, and over 50,000 users per week. Medcenter, meanwhile, has more than 500,000 healthcare professionals as members, more than 300,000 using its services each month, and a network of 280 Medical Associations.

Doctors.net.uk CEO Richard Adams says the alliance is 'a perfect fit', adding: 'We have for some time been exploring how to better serve the needs of our pharmaceutical and healthcare industry clients on an international basis.'
