The Biotechnology Development Center of Greater Kansas City is a 6,000 square foot incubator adjacent to the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City. The incubator was established several years ago and has since initiated a swelling of biotech investment in the region. The Biotechnology Development Center partners, the Kansas Bioscience Authority and KUMC have been developing additional incubator projects in Kansas City and Lawrence, Kansas.
The Lawrence-Douglas County Bioscience Authority’s Bioscience and Technology Business Center at the University of Kansas and the BioMedical Entrepreneurial Research Incubator (BMERI) planned at KUMC began with the initial goals set by the Kansas City Area Life Sciences Institute (KCALSI) ten years ago to establish the area as a prominent hub of scientific research in the United States.
