My “Definitive” List of Alliances of 2006

I have about 100 alliance agreements collected here. Of that group, around 25 I consider to be noteworthy.

To create a subset for further analysis, I collected the list of licenses and alliances nominated for either Recombinant Capital's Breakthrough Alliance of the Year or the Scrip Awards for 2006. From those lists, nine agreements have been publicly disclosed:

• Affymax Takeda Collaboration And License Agreement of June 27, 2006
