Sermo: Social network for doctors, where Wall Street pays to listen

sermo-logo.gifDavid Hamilton writes about Sermo, the social network for doctors, over at VentureBeat LifeSciences.

The company has just raised $25 million.

For $100,000 to $500,000 a year, Wall Street firms are also welcome to listen into the discussion among doctors, so that they can benefit from this fresh source of medical intelligence, David writes. That’s a lot of cash, considering these firms won’t be able to actually identify the doctors or ask them questions. The company competes with SocialMD. See David’s story here.
