Our Idea – Modern Marketing Strategies for Bioprocess Suppliers

As a small business ourselves, we are sympathetic to suppliers that face the challenge of competing against billion-dollar mega-suppliers. Helping smaller businesses compete against the mega-suppliers excites us.

By supporting high-potential upstart bioprocess suppliers with modern marketing services, Hapatune can help level the competitive playing field and improve choice in the market.

Our Essence

Hapa + Opportunity = Hapatune

Unlocking opportunity by melding your science with modern marketing.

Hapa

Hapa is a native Hawaiian word that translates to “blended” or “mixed.” Originally, “hapa” was used to describe the people of Hawaii who had mixed ethnic roots from the East and the West.

We use the term “hapa” to describe the melding of two (or more) parts to make a more vibrant whole.

Opportunity

We feel that opportunity should be made available to all in a fair manner to provide the best chance for success.

We provide your high-potential business with greater opportunity to thrive through our deep bioprocess knowledge combined with the implementation of modern marketing techniques.
