Approximately 85 PBC life science companies, plus 14 hospital systems
Private sector-led group to provide ongoing insight into industry trends, company needs, and unique opportunities relevant to the Palm Beach County market. This group shall have a high profile and active role in the BDB’s effort to promote and implement a successful life science strategy.
Address the majority of Palm Beach County residents and business community members who are not conversant about the life science industry and the opportunities it presents for potential employment for county residents and their families; and about the potential of commercializing technologies that may one day impact health, longevity, environmental resources, climate, or food supply and security.
Identify sources of early stage and ongoing investment capital to support product development needs over 10-15 year development timelines. Educate PBC’s active investment community about investing in life science transactions. Identify Palm Beach County high net worth individuals who invest in life science companies in other locations.
In a vibrant sector-focused cluster, networking occurs both intentionally and
collaborations and expanded business and personal partnerships and serves to break down silos of expertise.
Align the interests of the region and its partners under a single identity that positions the region as a unified entity for life science and biomedical development.
Focus on enhancing efforts to grow indigenous companies, to result in long-term, sustainable benefits including diversifying and growing the overall economy and creating high-paying jobs.
An unprecedented opportunity for the County and its academic partners to take a critical look at collective commercialization outcomes under the present framework.
