Maryland Manual 1994-1995

The Governor appointed the Board of Directors
of the Maryland Bioprocessing Center, Inc., in De-
cember 1991. The Center is a private, nonprofit
organization created by industry leaders from across
Maryland in conjunction with The Johns Hopkins
University, the University of Maryland System, and
Maryland State government. The Center promotes
the growth of the biotechnology and bioprocessing
industries in Maryland. Capitalizing on the State's
renowned biomedical research base, the Center
works to establish Maryland as a world leader in
these industries.
To achieve this mission, the Center will build a
"scale-up" biopharmaceutical manufacturing facil-
ity. In 1994, the Bioprocessing Center Facility will
be constructed in East Baltimore at the Bayview
Industrial Park, 5901 East Lombard Street. The
Facility will offer Maryland biotechnology compa-
nies affordable access in Maryland to pharmaceuti-
cal-grade (GMP) manufacturing facilities,
equipment, technical expertise, and regulatory
guidance. With the recent growth in the biotech-
nology industry, Maryland firms project $3 to $5
billion in product sales, $500 to $750 million in
capital investment, 40,000 jobs, and $100 million
in tax dollars by the next decade.
The Governor appoints the Board's twelve
members.
