Red, Green, and White Bioscience

Ohio continues to establish its international leadership role in the bioscience industry.

According to a recently released analysis by Cleveland-based BioEnterprise, Ohio has become the leading state between the coasts and one of the top five in the nation for healthcare venture capital firms, a key measurement in the strength of bioscience economies. Ohio bioscience companies in 2007 attracted $296 million in venture investments.

Ohio’s strength in bioscience is no secret to the rest of the world, as evidenced by the first-ever annual meeting of the National Agricultural Biotechnology Council coupled with the bi-annual Ohio Polymer Summit in Columbus on June 3-5. This conference highlights Ohio’s growing global dominance in the convergence of the health, agriculture and industrial sectors of the bioscience industry, the Red, Green, and White sectors that comprise Ohio bioscience.

Based on the color model established by European bioscience leaders, Ohio’s strength in the Red (health), Green (agriculture), and White (industrial) bioscience industry sectors stimulates innovation, promotes cross-collaboration and provides cost-effective solutions to scientific challenges.
