Few locations in the world can match Ohio’s infrastructure and asset base for start-up and emerging bioscience companies.

From 2004 to 2008, an average of 71 new bioscience-related companies began operation in Ohio each year. A few were relocations from other states or countries, but most were started by entrepreneurs or spun-out by companies in Ohio. They started their companies here and were quickly surrounded by resources to help them succeed, from incubators and networking groups to private equity sources and legal expertise.
