Since 2005, the BioAlliance has facilitated the work of businesses, academic and research institutions, and federal and provincial government agencies in establishing the bioscience sector as a key pillar in the economic foundation of the province of Prince Edward Island. We enthusiastically and actively work to develop relationships with industry players from around the world who want to work within a collaborative bioscience business ecosystem. We do this, in part, by:
- Supporting the growth of biotechnology companies in PEI
- Facilitating the application of new technology through research and helping to identify new commercial opportunities
- Leveraging and building the reputation of PEI and Atlantic Canada’s bioscience industries
When you join the PEI Bioscience Cluster, you become a part of a compelling bioscience industry network that cultivates innovation and excellence!
