With world-class airport, 45 colleges and universities, and low business and living costs, Atlanta metropolitan region is now attracting bioscience companies. Actually with 250 companies employing 10,000 workers, Georgia's life sciences industry climbed to seventh place, according to a recent Ernst & Young report.
However, the Atlanta bioscience industry still lags 10 to 15 years behind hotspots like San Francisco, Boston, and San Diego. Although there are plenty of university incubators, facilities for growing companies are lacking, and there are NO large biotechnology parks. The vision of this project is to develop the largest bio- and nanotechnology park in the US which provides a unique platform to bring scientists, businessmen, and the public together, exchange their ideas and cultivate the interested, in order to foster research and business in this promising area.
