Grant Funding NCBW has 9 years experience with many grant types: community, regional, state and federal • NCBC • BioNetwork • US DOL (High Growth and TAA CCCT) • NSF Advanced Technological Education Grants (Project Grant) Our externally captured funding total exceeds $ 20 M
BIOTECH EXPANSION Market Factors Heal, Fuel, Feed the World!
Size of Markets • The global pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and life sciences industry group is composed of these markets: • pharmaceuticals • biotechnology • life sciences tools and services Source: Deloitte
Size of US Biosciences Industry Growth in Talent and Companies 1.6 M = 3.4 M support jobs Source: Bio Batelle-National employment in the bioscience industry totaled 1.61 million in 2010, 70,006 individual business establishments. The total indirect and induced employment impact of the 1.6 million U.S. bioscience jobs is an additional 3.4 million jobs throughout the remainder of the economy.
Employment & Projected Change 2008-2018 Wage and Salaried Workers in Pharmaceutical & Medicine Manufacturing *NOTE: Employment in thousands; Columns may not add to total due to omission of occupations with small employment. SOURCE: BLS National Employment Matrix, 2008-18.
Building the Future • Traditional Segments- Agricultural, Industrial, Environmental Medical and Health • New Interface bio/nonbio segments-overlapping spheres of emerging technologies • Academic & Medical Research infrastructures- magnets for bioscience companies • Home grown industry needs- capital, educated manpower & an efficient, effective business environment It’s a Bladder! Our BT graduates helped!
Talent: Recruit, Transform & Groom Companies: • Workers 55+ growing 4X faster than the labor force as a whole • By 2030, the over-65 crowd will expand to 72 million people, up from 40 million in 2010*How Baby Boomers Will Change the Economy,Tom Sightings, January 15, 2013 • The economy is recovering, retirements will outpace job postings ! Community: • People are working longer • Talent is career changing or rearranging or realigning (life-style) The Opportunity Exists for Those Who Wish to Train
Talent Required*U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics: www.bls.gov Scientists, chemists, biologists, pharmacologists, microbiologists, toxicologists, epidemiologists,clinicians, regulatory experts, Biomedical engineers, research associates, technicians, QA/QC experts, manufacturing & production teams, operators packaging, ancillary support etc., Bioscience jobs on average out pay private sector jobs by 1.7 X (NCBC)
