This study has indicated that the link between biotechnology industries and economic growth in the Midwest could be very strong. All the important variables for biotechnology growth exist in the Midwest. The Midwest has strong and respected R and D laboratories, fine academic institutions, better than average expenditures on pre-college education, the availability of venture capital, a strong employment base, many of the principal industries that would benefit from biotechnology, and many other factors which are key to biotechnology growth. These factors combined with state incentive programs and innovative consortium ventures should lead to Midwest to higher economic growth based on biotechnology.
