BioPharma Dive wins 2021 Website of the Year from ASBPE

BioPharma Dive has been recognized as Website of the Year by the American Society of Business Publication Editors.

Judges for the 2021 Azbee Awards of Excellence said the publication’s "writing and reporting are consistently top-notch" during the virtual awards ceremony on Thursday.

"Our team put in an incredible effort in 2020 covering coronavirus vaccine development as well as an otherwise busy and eventful year in biotech and pharma," said BioPharma Dive Lead Editor Ned Pagliarulo. “We're proud to earn the recognition of the American Society of Business Publication Editors."

BioPharma Dive also earned Gold awards in News Analysis for its hemophilia story and a Gold award in Online Single Topic Coverage for its vaccine coverage.

The Azbee Awards of Excellence program is one of the most distinguished awards competitions, recognizing business-to-business, trade, association and professional publications for their achievements in high-quality reporting, editing and design.

In total, Industry Dive publications took home four golds, three silvers, and one bronze award in addition to the Overall Excellence Award for Website of the Year.
