Since 2003, Florida has invested over $759 million in the biotechnology sector to create new and attract established companies to the state.¹ Employment in Florida biotechnology companies has risen 18% from 2001 to 2008² and the state is poised to become a major biotechnology hub.

This site is intended to be a collaborative effort amongst Florida's biotechnology educators. Please feel free to make suggestions, send items, events and information to help build a comprehensive biotechnology training site.
