  1. Biosciences Talent Required Russ H. Read Indian Congress of Science January 6, 2016

  2. Innovation Quarter Winston – Salem, NC, USA works here

  3. Innovative Workplace

  4. A Place to Work, Live & Innovate

  5. NC Community College System 58 colleges in 100 counties Offer 2 year associate degrees in Arts & Sciences & Engineering, diplomas and certificates Offer workforce training- NCWorks Customized Training Offer specialized bioscience workforce training- BioNetwork

  6. What we do • Build national partnerships, chase and enact grants, research outcomes • Help create best practices for North Carolina in biosciences training and education

  7. How we do it • Lead the US DOL TAA Consortium for Bioscience (c3bc) & the NSF ATE Biosciences Industrial Fellows Program (BIFP) grants • Outreach & Engagement through the SciTech Lecture Series http://biotechworkforce.org/

  8. Why is it important to NC? 30.9 percent more jobs from 2000-12 Four times the national average

  9. Building the Future Home Grown Industry Needs: • Capital • Efficient, effective business environment • Educated manpower
