North Carolina Biotechnology Center, Southeastern Office

North Carolina Biotechnology Center, Southeastern Office The North Carolina Biotechnology Center is the oldest new-tech organization of its kind in the world. Biotech was on the cusp of becoming a new industry in 1984 when Gov.

Jim Hunt and other state leaders established the Biotechnology Center to capitalize on its economic promise. The goal was to secure a future of meaningful employment statewide, as the traditional tobacco, textile and furniture markets eroded. It worked. Today North Carolina is among the top-three states in bioscience employment. Its biotech base is one of the fastest-growing among the major biotech states. It’s the nation’s leading hub for contract research and testing companies. And it’s a world leader in vaccine research and manufacturing.

Mission: Specifically, to provide long-term economic and societal benefits to North Carolina through support of biotechnology research, business, education and strategic policy statewide.
