Maine’s growing bioscience industry will get some additional support with the formation of a new “bioscience cluster” initiative.
Launched yesterday by the Maine Center for Entrepreneurs in Portland, the initiative will aim to support bioscience innovators, entrepreneurs and startup companies involved in human and animal biology, pharmaceutical, marine and agricultural science, and healthcare innovations, according to a news release.
The cluster is made up of business incubators, accelerators and research partners committed to advancing the commercialization and scale-up of bioscience and health related businesses in Maine.
The Maine Bioscience Cluster is designed as a continuum of care, from the initial idea to the startup phase, including funding and talent development.
