Now, more than ever, start-ups can use all the help they can get. The San Jose BioCenter will provide your biotech or cleantech company with support for fundraising, business development, legal, lab support, HR and payroll activities, as well as, provide you with access to our $15 million dollar state-of-the-art laboratory facilities and shared equipment.

“In just 5 years San Jose BioCenter companies have raised over $1 Billion in deals and financing.” -Melinda Richter, Executive Director, San Jose BioCenter

Our mission is to provide life science and cleantech companies with the infrastructure, resources, networks and expertise they need to develop and commercialize their technology. The San Jose BioCenter was awarded the National Business Incubator Association (NBIA) International Incubator of the year award for 2009 because of our exceptional resources, programs and client success rate. After 1.5 years at the San Jose BioCenter, Tacere Pharmaceuticals inked a $145m development deal with Pfizer for its preclinical hepatitis C drug:

“As serial biotech entrepreneurs, we visited quite a few incubator sites in the Bay Area before deciding on a site for our company; none of which even compared to the San Jose BioCenter. At the BioCenter, the well-maintained shared equipment, tissue culture rooms, and common space available to us allow the Tacere Therapeutics team to concentrate our time and resources on research and development.” -Sara Hall, Founder, Director and CEO, Tacere Therapeutics

Our comprehensive laboratory and business services have been estimated as saving over $1M in set up and retrofitting costs for each company; in addition capital costs are significantly reduced by the $5M in shared equipment available to all of our companies. We also provide discounts for purchases from major industry vendors and service providers. In addition, the San Jose BioCenter team acts as the concierge to the investor, pharmaceutical, cleantech, government and academic communities. We can connect your company with industry leaders through our mentorship, meet with pharmaceutical and venture capital programs as well as assist your company with discounted registration at major industry events.

“Last year the San Jose BioCenter team facilitated an introduction between Single Cell and a large international pharmaceutical company. The introduction led to a partnership that is already generating income for Single Cell” -Rich Jorgensen, VP Business Development, Single Cell Technology, Inc.
