Catalog of Wet Lab and Incubator Space
The Biotechnology Center helps new and relocating companies find the right facilities to get up and running quickly. Our catalog identifies both incubator space as well as larger wet lab facilities available in different areas of the state. The information includes contact information for the individual (agent, broker, landlord and owner) representing each property.
Teacher Training and Classroom Support
No matter what the educational venue, the Biotechology Center has put in place programs to provide educators the training they need to prepare the state's workforce for high-paying jobs. Multi-faceted K-12 teacher support and education grants that apply from K-12 to community colleges to universities are available from the Center. In addition, Faculty Recruitment Grants continue to enrich biotechnology research and training programs at colleges and universities throughout the state that don't currently have extensive research programs in place.
