Los Angeles might be the best-kept secret in life sciences!

From world-class research to a strong funding base and some of the most talented people on the planet, LA has a solid foundation for continued innovation and growth in the bio and life sciences.

The Greater Los Angeles Area is home to over 18 million people, representing nearly half the state of California, with a culture that values collaboration and a tremendous diversity. We have a population representative of the entire world.

 
 
 

Diversity

We have a bio and life sciences ecosystem that spans biotech, medtech, digital health, telemedicine, health IT, synthetic biology, and more. And we have a diversity of complementary industries, from aerospace and agriculture, to apparel and cleantech, to of course media and entertainment, all with ties to our growing bio innovation ecosystem.
