B.C. ; creating new revenue streams by changing from a single-commercial sponsor model to an advertising-supported model.

Content Data Solutions was chosen as CCGMP's technology vendor, and in three months worked collaboratively on the website design, digitized the content of 18 specific medical specialty medical specialty Any specialty that provides non-interventional Pt management, ie with drugs, or with minimum intervention–eg, balloon catheterization Examples Internal medicine–allergy and immunology, cardiology, gastroenterology, hematology/oncology,  publications and associated study tools, and integrated the content into a newly designed e-commerce-enabled website.
