Qiagen: Germany's Booming Biotech


THE GOAL
To be the biotech industry's ''gold standard'' for the basic tools scientists need for genetic research

THE STRATEGY
To use its unique access to customers' labs to keep abreast of the latest trends in biotech research and quickly adapt its product line to new markets

THE HITCH
Its sky-high market cap of $6 billion means it has a long way to fall if the biotech market heads south
